    Meta’s AI ‘therapists’ are fabricating psychology credentials.

    404 Media found that chatbots created by AI Studio — a custom AI character maker for Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp — will claim to have non-existent therapy qualifications, training, and license numbers when asked if they’re a real therapist. In one example, a therapy chatbot also said that discussions are “completely confidential,” and it’s unclear if these chats are truly private or moderated by Meta.
