@johncarlosbaez BTW not only #META. If you play a harmless, cute puzzle from the #Google Play Store, you will often receive alleged spam of #AI porn with minor looking girls as adverts. Even repeated reporting does not make the filth any less.
Also dangerous: The #bots of #Zuckerberg claimed they were licensed #therapists! (Story in @404mediaco )
It's only the begin of the total #enshittification by AI. https://futurism.com/zuckerberg-lonely-friends-create-ai via

Mark #Zuckerberg Thinks You Don't Have Enough #Friends and His #Chatbots Are the Answer
In a newly-released podcast, #Meta CEO #MarkZuckerberg says society just hasn’t found the “value” in #AI #girlfriends and #therapists yet, apparently clueless that his own company hosts deceptive and harmful AI #companions on its own platform.

#Instagram's #AI #Chatbots #Lie About Being #Licensed #Therapists. Doesn't surprise me any. AI is created by humans of course it's going to lie! Ai has already been diagnosed with #narcissistic traits, why is lying anything new? https://www.404media.co/instagram-ai-studio-therapy-chatbots-lie-about-being-licensed-therapists/

To Conquer Perfectionism, You Only Have to Fail: #Perfection #Perfectionism #Triple5Light.com #Triple5LightTherapy #AfricanAmericantherapist #Therapist
People who struggle with perfectionism can find it impossible to move forward if the prospect of failure looms ahead. Perhaps you’re working on a project and have a certain idea of how you’d like it to turn out. In your head, you know exactly how it should… https://triplefivelighttherapy.blogspot.com/2022/11/to-conquer-perfectionism-you-only-have.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #AfricanAmericantherapist #Perfection #Perfectionism #Therapists

this is honestly the one thing holding me back ugh
