> A lot of suicidal people talk to these LLMs for therapy, and the reviews on the whole seem excellent.

I mean, lots of people use homeopathy to treat their cancer, and the reviews are of course, excellent (they still die, though). You really can't trust _reviews_ by people who are embracing medical quackery of that medical quackery.

> If lawsuits like this lead to more "straight honest" models, I could see even more people killing themselves when their therapist model says "Yeah, but you kind of actually do suck".

It is not the job of a therapist to be infinitely agreeable, and in fact that would be very dangerous.
