[P] I build a therapy chatbot (not another wrapper around openai API) (alien.top)

I made LLM therapist by fine-tuning an open source model using custom written and collected sessions in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Data contains conversations that illustrate how to employ CBT techniques, including cognitive restructuring and mindfulness.

It is mostly focused on asking insightful questions. Note: It is not production ready product. I am testing it and gathering feedback.

You can access it here: https://poe.com/PsychologistLuna

Sorry that it is on Poe but this way it was much faster than making my own mobile friendly website.

Since it's LLM, it is prone to hallucinate or give responses that might be perceived as rude. Please use it with caution.

if you're expecting people in need of therapy to use this with legitimate reason "responsibly" and "with caution", it essentially defeats the purpose of the bot which was intentionally created to be a reliable, self-policed companion targeting a user-base that vary on a wide spectrum of interpretation to what even constitutes a normalized sense of responsibly and caution..

way too many factors at play to mitigate in terms of liability, as others have said. take this resource as an example for a bot created to help those with eating disorders: https://www.npr.org/sections/health-shots/2023/06/08/1180838096/an-eating-disorders-chatbot-offered-dieting-advice-raising-fears-about-ai-in-hea
