I'm not sure what I think about that. Therapy is mostly broken now, so maybe it would be better. 😅

Maybe therapy is too strict of a word... but I've had these brain storming sessions where I am thinking about a concept that may be unconventional (mixing interesting ideas together) and the LLM 'tries' to meet you where you are and go with it. If you add in the right context you can do a pretty deep dive into your own perspective, or learn about possible interpretations/theory craft IRL situations in the past and future.

Of course this is not exactly truth, responses are entirely dependent on how the LLM was trained on etc etc...

but you are actually exploring a semantic space with it (prompts and responses are just high dimensional vectors) and you can start to formalize/make concrete ideas in your head that you may have been difficult to pull out on your own, or with a web search.

Now add on the idea that you combine the training process with bio-metrics (ideally & emphatically with a privacy respecting product). Add on a teaching/therapy/guru persona with the context of your data and we may have a new avenue towards introspection and self-discovery.

Just spitballing here though from what started with that paper 😅

No, that's brilliantly thought through. Therapy is supposed to work that way.
