That is one bullshit headline. Forbes keeping the AI pump and dump scheme going.

TLDR: People correctly discerned that written responses were from an "AI" chatbot slightly less often than they correctly discerned that responses were from a psychotherapist.

"AI" cannot replace a therapist and hasn't "won" squat.
