    Of course not, but “restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests, or activities” is one of the key traits of autism observed by non-autistic folks and one of the major criteria/requirements for diagnosis, and playing a specific video game over and over can certainly line up with part of that

    Does this make someone autistic, no, but if that person’s seeing this, pretty heavy social communication differences with others, inflexibility with routine, nonverbal communication differences, atypical sensory sensitivity, and all this has been since an early age, they should probably start considering the possibility







  • I do like the site, I just kind of wish that if they’re going to say “stop using AI for therapy” that they would actually go in depth as to what alternative resources (communities with others with similar difficulties, “just tell the therapist”, etc.) are there and why they’re better

    I doubt someone using AI for this (especially someone in a state of psychosis) is going to follow the link, see that they’re just saying “AI bad, need regulation”, and change, most they’d probably do is shrug and keep using

    It’s addictive, arm the addicts with something to help themselves break free, don’t just make a singular statement
