"[genAI] is not hearing you with a body that will one day die."
Your thread expresses fundamental truths about the poisonous impact of genAI on human life.
You are right about therapy: it is an existential encounter between two persons who share the same human condition, each side flawed but both risking an honest and open dialogue.
It is horrifying to think that a human being in a deep personal crisis may reach out for help and will be given the illusion of dialogue, without a true "Thou" on the other side.
Similar arguments apply to other activities that are inherently dialogical, such as teaching.
The losses will be deep and lasting. genAI is good at pretending dialogue, and the effects will be masked at first, but that will only amplify the real societal damage.
