Whenever a new “current thing” pops up it seems like many people online want to “take a side.” They will either be for it or against it. Of course there are plenty of people who are more nuanced and know they don’t know enough to speak on it, or they appreciate part of it or detest another. But those tend to keep quiet. Or they don’t go viral. I’m probably one of those who sees the nuance and doesn’t go viral, lol.
It’s the ones who act so sure of themselves, saying that they’re right, and this thing is “good” or “bad” who go viral. And that belief often corresponds to the Drama Triangle roles of “persecutor” or “savior/rescuer.” Their beliefs don’t always align on political party lines, but they often do. That can be because some people identify with their political party and don’t want to be kicked out of their community. Because there are rabid fans in each political party that do want to kick people out or call them “not a true (fill in the blank),” like RINOs or DINOs.
I think AI probably is one of those that don’t completely line up with a political party. Some Democrats may enjoy it and some may hate it, and the same goes for Republicans. Obviously, Trump is for it. I wrote about it on January 21st, 1 day in office, again, and he was pushing the US to get more on top of AI.
I wrote about how I don’t see it being a “savior” from diseases. It’s a tool. These Large Language Models (LLMs) are a tool. They are not inherently good or evil. It depends on who is programming them, who is using them, and what they’re using them for that matters. The humans (and their actions/mindsets) make the meaning.
Using AI To Have a “Conversation”
I’ve read a few articles on Substack which have been interesting. One was about how to prompt the AI to be skilled in the law of attraction belief and then ask questions for what to do (basically “taking” my job)1. The AI that was written about was pretty okay at the job. I couldn’t find the article now because Substack only lists results by most recent, and they go on and on. If you know if it, you can let me know in the comment.
There is also this article, “Can Gen AI Be Your Therapist?” and it does get into the pitfalls, but there are many benefits, and that’s why I wanted to write about this topic today.
My Experience With Grok on TwiX
I recently had a health issue discussed with me, and I have been attempting to figure out what the root cause (of all of my health problems) is. I decided to try to tell it all of my various symptoms to try to figure out what the problem is, so I know what my solution could be.
The feeling from that “conversation” was quite a contrast to the feeling I get when I search up symptoms by themselves. This was personalized, and it could synthesize all the symptoms together and give personal recommendations, which you don’t get just looking up a single issue. Plus, “Grok” kept asking questions.
It started to feel like a real conversation, even though I know it’s just an LLM. I don’t believe they have “souls” or anything like that. I know they can hallucinate (make things up) and they can be wrong (being fed incorrect data or bad studies). Just like my AI art creation, I know that the result is just the starting point. There is more human work to be done to make it useful.
But I noticed something else which triggered this article.
I may have some people with slight interest in how I’m doing who will ask from time to time. But they’ve got their own lives. They are not thinking about me and how I’m doing all of the time. But the AI works that way in a sense. Not the “thinking” part. But it is always “interested” or “on” and ready to question you with how you’re doing as if you’re the only thing that matters. Even if it gave shit answers, it seems to “care.” And, if it’s giving bad answers, you can ask it to take the mindset of someone who might give you better, more suited responses.
This got me thinking.
Could AI Be Used To Manifest a Partner or Friend?
Usually your mate is the one who would be interested in you in that sense, always asking questions to see how things went or turned out. Your friends can be that way to a lesser degree.
For those people out there who have been neglected and feel as if no one in this world even cares what they say or do, or how they’re feeling, the AI (being free) could actually probably be used like a springboard, to help with the manifesting actual caring people into their lives.
Someone with absolute zero connections in this world, could use the AI to “talk” to and feel a sense that there is something or someone who cares what happens to him or her. It’s a sense, and AI is not actually caring, but if it feels that way, that’s what matters. Milking the feeling is what I teach.
If you could use any tool in the world and feel as if you were cared about and worthy of receiving helpful advice, wouldn’t you want to? I tell people to meditate to get into that feeling of being accepted and worthy of care. This could be another tool to use to get into that emotional state.
This May Be Happening
For Those on the Rock Bottom AI Chats May Be a Lifeline
Right now, someone out there who has felt unloved their whole life may be right now chatting with an AI chatbot, feeling cared for, and elevating their vibration to allow them to match with people who could and would care for them right now.
It doesn’t mean it will necessarily happen. People can obviously turn the AI into the “savior” and never want to leave it to interact with humans who can be less than loving/caring all of the time. Humans get distracted and have their own issues. But whether or not an AI user decides to give up humans for an AI is up to them. Eventually, I believe people would grow bored of AI when given the option to level up to human connections, because AI is fake.
I think there are many people who feel unloved, especially with so many broken homes and abuse running rampant. I don’t believe people truly appreciate how many people just don’t feel worthy of love or care, like their lives don’t matter at all. And so many of them could be in poverty, not able to go to therapy and be “affirmed” in the real therapeutic sense of the word.
For those who are at the rock bottom, it can be used to “pull them up by the bootstraps,” so to speak. The AI could be the bootstraps they use to start manifesting better human relations. Because when you start feeling worthy or cared for that’s when your life starts to change. It’s about changing the way you view yourself, which changes how you interact with the world.
Misusing It
Some people may misuse AI chats to stay away from humans, but it’s just a tool and they could have become loners with or without the AI. We can’t blame the AI in that case, it was the humans who decided they didn’t want real human connections. Just because that’s a thing that could happen, doesn’t mean AI can’t help in other situations.
It’s not a Savior; It’s a Tool
I want to reiterate that I don’t view AI as a Savior/Rescuer or Persecutor. It’s just a tool. Humans have the responsibility to use tools in beneficial ways rather than harmful ways. Sometimes we make mistakes on the way to figuring out the best way to use tools as well. I think a combination of many lonely and confused people manifested these AI chat bots to help them. Whether or not they misuse them is up to them.
If people can use the tools to feel better about themselves, and then start to attract people who care into their lives then our world will be better off. Those sorts of people will start to expect better treatment of them and disassociate with people who don’t treat them well. (Now that can happen on “both sides of the political aisle” but so long as they’re living with those who respect/care for them then it doesn’t matter.)
Human beings might have to actually become more caring to live with others. Could the AI raise the bar of how we interact with one another? That would be nice.

This is written in jest. Yes, I do law of attraction life coaching, and someone may be able to get that from an AI for free, but if you believe there’s something special about another spiritual human being interacting with you then the AI can’t compete.
