Not sure what they use (you could ask one of them.) Bue we’ve used OBS Ninja for similar things. As far as I remember it works well, has acceptable latency and everything is open source.

Edit: Obviously you have to put in some effort to configure OBS to your liking, make appealing slides etc.

And you need to configure protonvpn correctly so it uses their DNS. In the VPN world this is known as a ‘DNS leak’.

I’d be more interested in how it compares to a real therapist. Since the author has experience with both, she could have given some insight instead of just describing her experience with the bot. For example, does a therapist have different conversation strategies? Do they pose the same questions? Do they behave and treat you differently? What would happen if it gets to a specific trauma… How does the chatbot compare to a therapy session regarding the same topic?

And yeah, it has a lot of ChatGPT vibe to its tone. The repeating, lecturing and providing alternatives and ending with a call to action or a question… I don’t like that but YMMV. (And other LLMs talk differently. So there’s the option of having a therapy bot with some other AI platform.)
