One is privacy always.
Like, who gets these transcripts?
One is control.
Like, who defines what an AI responds and what...
theories and theses of change are they working from.
But the one that scares the hell out of me is the perfection problem.
And sometimes I wonder if we might inadvertently be creating the conditions for a total rejection of humanity, of like dumb, boring, incomplete, half-asleep humans, when you could have this thing that is so hyper-responsive.
Do you feel like people, once they find Wobot, they never want to leave it?
Yeah.
And I wonder if we create this dependence on AI, therapy, companions, that you'll never be able to say, I did it myself.
None of us will.
Is there anything you do explicitly to push people back into IRL interactions or...?
Do you have red lines?
Has Wobot sat around and said, there's a whole set of things that people might do in this space that we are not going to do?
Is the effectiveness of therapy getting better over time, or is this sort of element in the mix maybe going to increase the efficacy across the board?
Could you imagine
a point where you could put an AI on the kitchen table and then the family could have one of its sort of little fights, shall we say, and then it would take the transcript and say, well, Edward, you shouldn't have said this, and Kelly, you interrupted, and dot, dot, dot.
Could you imagine that kind of feedback on the dynamics that are keeping a family cycling on the same dumb patterns over and over?
Not being personal at all here, Edward.
I'm thinking about your comment about flirting, and my best friend is pretty sure that her therapist falls asleep on her.
