Answer my question, or just admit you refuse to engage in conversation and we can depart
There is no conversation to be had here, because you have no point.
A text generator is not someone you talk to, it's a thing that takes your input and then outputs the text that is most likely relevant to said input.
No reasoning. No knowledge.
Taking the example made in one of the other comments here, you could paint a face to a ball and keep yourself mentally stable on a desert island, but the ball isn't doing anything, there's only you on the island.
Apply that to getting mental help from an LLM and you'll see how creepy it is.
what you are describing is called a Markov chain, not a large language model.
Totally another thing, since we are talking about language here.
But feel free to join the other guy in talking to your screen.
It’s pretty difficult to prove my point when you refuse to have a conversation. What you want is to just get your dopamine by criticizing others instead of allowing them to argue their point.
So you are right, there is no conversation to be had here because you are not willing to engage in a conversation.
I wish you the best in your therapy.
I wish you the best in talking to the calculator.
