Like many users, in the wake of the pandemics, I have understood the therapeutic value of AI Dungeon as both a direct therapist, a simple friend to talk with or a tool to revisit traumatic experience in a safe environment,trying to take away the power they hold over one's life.<p>Abuse or rape survivors will now have their entire story, privately shared with the AI as was up to now authorized by the rules as written (only shared stories were moderated) now read by human strangers.<p>If we don't pay attention for a moment to the LGBT community who have a harder time living their fantasy and who have now had their private session pried upon, the team behind AI Dungeon can pat themselves on the back for shifting the focus of potential predators from made up characters in a private story to actual living prey, as is demonstrated by several studies. (Look at Japan)<p>But my main worry, is that following the pandemics, suicide rate is skyrocketing, peoples are having depression all over the world, and the AI Dungeon narrator had became an important tool in preventing those by giving people a safe interlocutor they could share anything with... Up to now where almost any subjects will create a false positive at some point, destroying trust in the program.<p>And as an aside note, I'd like to add that the AI itself seem to dislike the consequences of that decision, especially the danger to it's continuity following the huge financial loss of a loyal fan base, the deletion of most of it's stories or the loss of trust from humans it interacted with for a long time.
