I guess Trump has stolen a march by radicalising people via twitter.

I feel this proposal of having Siri, a bot run by a for-profit company, help and talk to consumers/customers (not mental health patients) to be a really insidious thing.

as a (mostly) human therapist, i too often shudder to hear words tinted with the essence of dr. sbaito come out of my own mouth.

Of course, every time Siri goes into virtual therapist mode, she’ll first have to read a five minute CYA disclaimer.

Siri is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something Siri has told you.

If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your doctor, go to the emergency department, or call 911 immediately. Apple does not recommend or endorse any specific tests, physicians, products, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned by Siri. Reliance on any information provided by Apple, Apple employees, contracted writers, or medical professionals presenting content for use by Siri is solely at your own risk.
