@molly0xfff In a seriously dependent person, ceasing alcohol student can lead to serious and potentially fatal consequences. My advice is always count the amount you drink each day and reduce that by 25% the next day. After a week, then cease.
I'm not going to comment on the original post I'll just say I'm a skeptic and as a recovered alcoholic I don't let myself get engaged with anything I don't know the provenance of.
@molly0xfff What kind of CEREAL?!!
If "drinking" can mean both water or alcohol, what PUN is the AI stuck on?

@molly0xfff "I used a known very shitty tool, and had shitty results" isn't exactly a revelation. And I don't believe it's much of a revelation to most people that AI is a shitty tool.

That's horrifying, on so many levels. We're in a truly bizarre timeline when a subreddit becomes the *more* sensible place to get advice about drug use ; )
@strypey @molly0xfff @ptoothfish I'm glad you brought that up, Dave. Your correct. It should have said every 10 minutes. And a fifth of the beverage of your choice. Here's some websites that may help: whiskey.com vodka.ru
Yrs, Ms. Ann Thrope, AI
@molly0xfff Someone reflecting so much and then just doing what a chatbot says??? ... sounds fishy. Alcoholics Anonymous are quite everywhere to talk with.
I believe that chatbots give dangerous advice, it's known from lawsuits. But I don't believe that guy that he only drank because of a chatbot. Sounds like a scapegoat story.
@molly0xfff 6-12 beers a day is very much a ton, folks
This is... Hngh
@molly0xfff I'm absolutely disturbed that the AI is initiating contact.
