My son who is a computer genius always uses AI as therapy for a serious illness

 There are some people who can use or interact with AI who actually know what it is and what it can accomplish. My son is one example of this kind of person.

However, he has been building custom made desktop computers since he was in his teens for gaming and now games online with his son who is almost 12 years old.

However, he got myasthenia Gravis an autoimmune disease a couple of years ago triggered by Covid. Many people's health has been adversely affected by boughts with Covid so this isn't unusual in this day and age unfortunately. At least he is still alive.

However, people who are ill and having problems often can be helped with their interaction with Artificial intelligence especially people who really understand what it actually is.

His therapy is mostly using AIs to make art and music custom made to his specifications and he meets other people online around the world especially in places like Europe and the U.S. and Canada where he can meet other people making art and music using Artififical intelligence.

However, no everyone understands what they are dealing with like my son does. He has enough background to not make the mistakes many people make with AI.

He is also 51 years old and has been building and fixing computers and learning programming languages since he was 15 years old.

So, there are people who are relatively safe using AI.

However, younger more naive people are not safe using AI and older more feeble people and those with mental health or identity problems also might not be safe using AI either.

People who have addictive behavior might get addicted to AI and this could cause problems too in the same way as people who are alcoholics might also become addicted to AI.
