alt Hacker NewsWhich makes the odd HN AI booster excitement about LLMs as therapists simultaneously hilarious and disturbing. There are no controls for AI companies using divulged information. Theres also no regulation around the custodial control of that information either.
The big AI companies have not really demonstrated any interest in ethic or morality. Which means anything they can use against someone will eventually be used against them.

You're right, but it tracks that the boosters are on board. The previous generation of golden child tech giants weren't interested in ethics or morality either.
One might be mislead by the fact people at those companies did engage in topics of morality, but it was ragebait wedge issues and largely orthogonal to their employers' business. The executive suite couldn't have designed a better distraction to make them overlook the unscrupulous work they were getting paid to do.
