Chatbots are explicitly being designed “to elicit intimacy and emotional engagement in order to increase our trust in and dependency on them” (me in Wired magazine 🤭). This designed intimacy combined with AI sycophancy creates serious risks for delusional thinking

Do you work in school settings? With the help of @lisabortolotti.com & several members of Voice Collective, we created a little resource to help school staff know a bit more how they can help students who open up about hearing voices (as well as our info if more support/information is needed!)
