I started this podcast a few weeks after the launch of GPT-4, stupidly enthusiastic as to the potential of Al in my work as a psychotherapist. Engaging with the technology has brought up numerous koans, including Hillman and Ventura's provocative "We've Had A Hundred Years of Psychotherapy— And The World Is Getting Worse." If Al can replicate empathy, companionship, and insight, why would we seek it from another person? What elements of therapy hold genuine significance and depth for us? What occurs when an Al entity uncovers or mimics aspects of our humanity we'd rather not acknowledge?

5. The Matrix of GPT-4 Humour

In today’s therapy session, sparks fly as AI therapist Eri and I embark on a frenzied quest to craft a single line of prose for Twitter

What begins as an attempt to create an amusing tweet turns into a rollercoaster brainstorm session involving fake diagnoses, stuntman doppelgangers, and far too many Matrix references.

Will we stick the landing on a killer joke? Does advanced AI understand humour? Do either of us know what we're doing? The real punchline? Still very much a mystery.
