Hey guys, I posted this a while ago and got a very cautious response... People are very worried about legal and ethical implications.

Since then, I've added a host of safety mechanisms to MindMateGPT ensuring it is not diagnosing or engaging in crisis situations. Instead it refers you to a human psychiatrist or crisis line.

The focus group showed an overwhelmingly positive response with 100% of the users reporting a large increase in well being, with 90% of those reporting a similar increase in confidence for dealing with emotional/social issues.

Personally, I see it and use it as more of a journaling companion, letting you vent intelligently about your thoughts. It's a good compliment to the negativity and delusions often upvoted on social media.

Try it out! It's 100% free!

Thanks

Had some good discussion about this last time. Now I'm submitting this for a second discussion after my lawyer gave the current version the OK.

Let me know what you think!

Cool! Down to work on this. Let me know where to reach out. Also I've contacted my lawyer about this and it's a very grey area. We'll see where that goes.

Ok I added a note that ensures users know how we handle their data. Let me know what you think.

Hey, thanks for the feedback.

I'm interested in how I can use this moving forward because I have personally found my app to be helpful for getting over a breakup.

My prompt is designed for Mindy to act as the "best of both worlds" between a real therapist and robot therapist, which means it will refer you to real therapy if it deems your problem too serious for a robot.

I'm not sure anymore however. I don't store any data for longer than the session is active, but I know OpenAI does. Also: OpenAI knows I am using their API for this purpose.

I'm really at a loss. I see the value and the harm. I'm going to have to do more thinking on this.

Right now, I store their data in redis and delete their session when they refresh or close the page.

What do you suggest as a solution?

I've developed a GPT-3 enabled robot therapist that aims to provide empathetic and informed conversations for individuals seeking mental health support. The project leverages the power of GPT-3 to offer a non-judgmental space, evidence-based coping strategies, and encouragement to seek professional help when necessary.
