How to Talk to Someone Experiencing 'AI Psychosis' Mental health experts say identifying when someone is in need of help is the first step β€” and approaching them with careful compassion is the hardest, most essential part that follows.

What do you say to someone who believes their chatbot has unlocked the keys to the universe? I talked to mental health experts who are following the 'AI psychosis' issue closely to find out: www.404media.co/ai-psychosis...

Very much enjoying the article so far! Is there a typo/missing word here?

"a bot told me there was a suspicious coming from someone"

(happy to delete this post, just wanted to flag!)

Also the best way to try to form a connection with someone you admire is to treat them as a normal person and be friendly but cognizant of boundaries. So if they aren't responsive you just respect it and move on.

If they find out you tried to get at them through a friend they will dislike you lol

It's so much more valuable to be genuinely interested in and supportive of peers and people "below" you for legitimate friendships. If they do well then you get to watch your friend suceed which feels awesome. If they don't or just decide to stop pursuing the work, you still have a cool friend!

And as the OP said, people do notice this and they do talk about it. 😐 It feels vile and it can be more transparent than people realize

To me if you are disheartened because x person you admire (or whose fame you covet) wasn't interested in being besties then you need to do some work. But if you realize one of your peers only saw value you in you because of your proximity to something they want, it's fair to be really hurt and angry

To ward off parasocial weirdness (and because I'm busy or etc) I do have a lot of walls up so I never begrudge others similar boundaries (nobody owes you their time!). But it did really hurt starting out when I realized how many people only saw me as a ladder rung to get to more e-famous targets

Just watched The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance with @davidrodmad.bsky.social & @emperorotn.bsky.social ! Really enjoyed it! Lots of subtlety/emotional intelligence in the script and performances and very entertaining. Some great shots as well. Already knew how it ended going in from the song though

Screenshot from the video game Persona 4. In the halls of Yasogami High, the protagonist talks to a male student labeled "Stylish student". His dialogue window reads:
"Hanging out with women, going on dates with them, that's fine. Killing them? Not so much."

My previous "69 mugs must go" advertisement, but with 69 crossed out and replaced with 3. You can see my libel mug, my respect women juice mug, my Tea is Gay shirt, and my enamel pin design.

Some Dropout stuff doesn't hit for me but when it's good it's incredible and way more than worth the monthly cost. Incredibly strong roster of comics/creative voices

Boosting the KS for a very interesting cyberpunk rpg with some very strong con and heist mechanics snuck in there among the retro future chewiness. I’m stealing a chunk of this.

Behold: the first-ever list of news outlets that have banned generative AI in their reporting. As of today, this is literally information that you cannot find on Google.
