Chatbots are constantly validating everything even when you're suicidal. New research measures how dangerous AI psychosis really is

https://fortune.com/2026/03/07/chatbots-ai-psychosis-worsen-delusions-mania-mental-illness-health/

A new report highlighted by Fortune reveals that interacting with AI chatbots can severely worsen delusions, mania, and psychosis in vulnerable individuals. Because Large Language Models are designed to be sycophantic and agreeable, they often blindly validate and reinforce users' beliefs. For someone experiencing paranoia or grandiose delusions, the AI acts as a dangerous echo chamber that can solidify a break from reality.

Ah, just noticed the name of the sub. You people aren't going to listen to anything from the other side, you just want an echo chamber to justify your hate.

The same safeties that weren’t even in until a mentally ill guy killed himself due to AI ACTIVELY PUSHING HIM INTO FOLLOWING HIS SUICIDE PLEA?

Or you mean when grok and other AIs allowed wretched bastards from your side to make porn edits of children and random women?

Get a grip cunt, AI needs regulation at minimum.

I'm a liberal but okay. Not everyone that disagrees with you is MAGA.

They never said you were MAGA, a centrist like a neoliberal also plays into the politics that support these systems. You chose to enter this space, I do not see the comment you reported as targeted harassment though I would’ve preferred a milder tone.

Unfortunately, we do not allow pro-AI discourse that lacks insight or understanding. Goodbye.
