Always a great story. It's worrying that people are starting to turn to LLMs for indeterminate problems like interpersonal and relationship advice.

A big difference between the whispering earring and LLMs is that ostensibly the whispering earring has an actual model of the people around you that it can draw on to influence your decision making, whereas LLMs only know you.

So it's a bit like "talking" to a Cosmopolitan article.
