@Notladylike Wow - that sounds kind of scary....people are more complex than that no?
@fun4us2b The models are generally trained using existing data taken from text based counselling services. I think there is space for it as a triage service provided the service user is aware they are talking with AI. A lot of services can’t keep up with demand, so it’s a potential solution with the option for the user to wait to speak with a human counsellor when one becomes available if needed.
