Shownotes Transcript

Intro: I am a psychotherapist, and I help people working on AI safety. I noticed patterns of mental health issues highly specific to this group. It's not just doomerism, there are way more of them that are less obvious. 

If you struggle with a mental health issue related to AI safety, feel free to leave a comment about it and about things that help you with it. You might also support others in the comments. Sometimes such support makes a lot of difference and people feel like they are not alone.All the examples in this post are changed in a way that it's impossible to recognize a specific person behind them.**Source:**https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/tpLzjWqG2iyEgMGfJ/6-non-obvious-mental-health-issues-specific-to-ai-safety)Narrated for LessWrong) by TYPE III AUDIO).Share feedback on this narration.)[125+ Karma Post]
