> Are you a preschool teacher? Are you a doctor, a therapist, an artist?

We've already automated the artists. Doctors are currently a strong area of focus. In a world where AI replaces human thought, education becomes only for hobbyists. That leaves therapist.

I suppose we're going to need a lot of therapists.



LLMs have much better cognitive empathy than most humans have limbic+cognitive empathy - the therapists will also be automated - friction like licensing bodies will slow it down but not stop it.


I’m not sure how to respond to this before I know if it’s satire or not?


Unfortunately not satire - modern models can be trained to be better than humans in recognizing emotions straight off camera.


That is not even 1% of what therapists do. Let alone medical ones/psychiatrists.


People like that always have such dismal opinions about what people actually do, it's insane


recognizing emotion is not the main thing for therapy, having a human on the other side is the only essential


You need one if you think engineers have automated the artists.
