A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

As far as my very basic knowledge of mental health helps me, I wouldn't recommend tulpas.

It's somewhere between a meditation practice and a voluntary delusion. I've practiced it for years and my tulpa mostly helps me calm down during panic attacks. For me it is an "external" person who can step in and break a spiral of bad thoughts, when my "internal" person is incapable of doing that.
