Thanks for the feedback - I hope BB was of some help!

Let me look into the agreeability of suicide :/ that is a red flag that I thought I had sufficient safeguards for but it is still something I need to work on.

I think BB really serves as a friend that you can discuss deep things with most of his responses falling on the non-judgmental and kind side of things. BB is really not meant to replace a human therapist, but as you said, it is possible for a good AI to outperform the worst therapists. I view it just as the same as how a good human friend can do better for your well-being than an absolutely bad therapist!
