      What is the current science on Eliza-like therapy chat bots?

      Do they still have some sort of "placebo" therapeutic effect or has that been disproven?

        No idea, but I am of the firm opinion that a huge portion of therapy is just the honest, private, and judgement free communication with another person. I don't think that replicate with a ai. You may be able to trick the logic part of your brain into thinking you are talking with someone, bit there is so much non verbal communication that is just absent.
