    While a lot of people die trough suicide, it’s not exactly good or helpful when an AI guides some of them trough the process and even encourages them to do it.

      Actually being shown truthful and detailed information about suicide methods helped me avoid it as a youth. That website has since been taken down due to bs regs or some shit. If I were young now I’d probably ask a chatbot and I’d hope they give me crystal clear, honest details and instructions, that shit should be widely accessible.

      On the other hand all those helplines and social ads are just depressing to see, they feel patronising and frankly gross, if anything it’s them that should be banned.
