AI as it stands is way overrated, at least when they use it to literally replace people of skill and ability. It's like saying a late 19th century steam-powered car is ready to be the new transportation for all the world. But it wasn't.

"We keep trying to make AI therapists. It’s not working.
Artificial intelligence can play a role in mental health --- but only if we don’t expect too much."

In fact, it's really irresponsible to try to make an AI therapist. People go to therapists because they need help--and for some it's *really serious business*. It can be life or deaht.
