I’m not putting all my negative feelings into a company sponsored LLM to fucking have it say, “no relax guy, it’ll be OK.” Like it’s a fucking clanker.

I'd be more concerned with any company sponsored AI chatbot therapist using what you say influence your employment relationship.

Employee X: I'm worried about losing my job so I work unpaid overtime and that is affecting my marriage.

Therapist chatbot to management: Employee X should not be given a raise. They already have enough external motivation to work without additional financial incentives.
