    I was able to run llms on a 1080. They were admittedly small ones, but a 3090 is enough to be usable. That said, I’m not convinced it’s a good idea to use it for therapy. I expect it’s about as useful as talking into a mirror.

        I mean, it can be pretty coherent and impressive with the right LLM, but even then it’s mostly just functioning to generate what you want it to, and it’s certainly not going to provide professional insight for those that need it.

      talking into a mirror

      Does journaling count? It’s got a small positive benefit according to https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8935176/

        Talking things out to ourselves can often be useful. It could certainly be good for that.
