I suppose one perspective can be that it's cheaper to pay $20/mo than +$150 for a 45min session. So, "advice" and "opinions" become cheap and accessible. But, does it translate into quality?
I still find it hard to accept boilerplate psychological advice from an LLM.
I think that part of the reason why we gravitate towards other humans is because we assume they've gone through similar experiences. That's why I don't take relationship advice from someone that has never dated someone. An LLM lacks... humanity... it can tell me what the textbook says but life's more nuanced than just tokens.
From my point of view an LLM has access to all the knowledge in the world but lacks the nuance that makes advice valuable in these scenarios.
