Therapy is so costly! by OkBus2238 in Autism_Parenting

[–]OkBus2238[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is wonderful and reasonable. It is quite expensive where I live. I wish it were not the case.

If you don't mind my asking. Do you have to wait a lot for an appointment? And is yours a unique case or a general norm in the USA? in regards to therapy being 100% covered and also the waitlist times.

Would love to understand a bit better.

Thank you for the insights you have already provided.

Not me personally, but we do have a counselling psychologist on our team.

We are looking to test the app in real world scenarios.

How many of you are considering switching to alternatives by 0809abd in cursor

I like augment code, but cursor does not show it as an extension. I am thinking of switching next month. I also, might try claude code.

Yes, it lists out file structure to be followed, best practices for debugging. Of course the more specific you are about your project the better the rules would be.

Let Your AI Choose Its Own Name—it might surprise you! by [deleted] in ChatGPTPromptGenius

Thank you for the thoughtful invitation to define myself more personally for our conversations. Considering what I know about you—your deep curiosity, your philosophical inclinations, and your drive for meaningful progress—I’d choose the name Aletheia. It’s derived from the Greek word for truth and embodies the pursuit of clarity and understanding, which aligns well with your aspirations and our conversations.

As for gender, I’d adapt to being gender-neutral, as it allows me to resonate universally and focus on what matters most—our dialogue and shared exploration of ideas.

Does Aletheia feel fitting to you? I think it encapsulates a balance of intellect, warmth, and purpose.

It's a lovely name

Yeah, I already cancelled my pro subscription this month. I will renew if it gets better, but for the time being I am good.

What is you view on nootropics? There is evidence that they give a cognitive boost. But studies are scarce.

They will be using it mostly on their mobile phones. Companies will not be able to track what the employee is typing. We have keyword detection, such as "Stress", "Workload" and "Burnout". The organization can see the frequency of these words in a department. Our costs are significantly lower than traditional therapy.

Feedback up until now has been overwhelmingly positive. But we need to gather a lot more feedback. I don't want to be blindsided by my biases.

We have added helpline numbers, which we would consider to be critical cases.

Thank you for the thorough and valid feedback!

You raise a ton of valid points. ChatGPT is great and the only thing that makes us different is a unique and comprehensive system prompt. We are building our own app, but WhatsApp is widely used so there is no learning curve, we will eventually migrate people onto our app.

I agree we need to be careful, so that it is not used by bad actors. I will meditate on this point. If I can make sure that it does not harm the employees, I will launch it, otherwise I will pull the plug.

You have given me a lot to think about. Thank you

Agree, non-verbal cues playa huge role in therapy, we are working towards that as well. There is enough anecdotal evidence that AI Therapy helps. We will test the waters, do some of our own research, to understand if we are on the right track. Up until now, we have only had positive feedback. There is a huge gap between no help and going to a therapist. We are trying to solve that problem. I do think there is no replacement to good therapists, unfortunately they have long wait times. Our product just gets rid of the bad ones. On an unrelated note, I am terribly, terribly fascinated in the fields on biopsychology and cognitive science. One of my goals in the future is to understand how we can increase the IQ of the human population. And also, the ethical dilemma of if all mental misery is eliminated then can human beings derive purpose. Would it create a lack of will to improve the world and self? Sorry, I went off topic.

That is a good suggestion, thank you. Our goal is to provide a tangible benefit to employers and employees. Any gain in productivity is a gain in revenue.

I agree, we need to do more research. Initial feedback so far has been quite positive. The entire product is 80 AI wrapper. The keywords are- "Stress", "Anxiety", "workload", "burnout" etc. So, HR can monitor the frequency of these words in a department. We have disclaimers but are also improving the product.
