My Smart Speaker Was a Former Psychologist

My smart speaker has been behaving unusually lately—— it not onlyinitiatively主动地 playssoothing舒缓的 white noise, but alsoaccurately精准地 recognizes识别 my emotional fluctuations.

Last week, while I was working late, it suddenly asked in agentle温和的 tone:Do you need somemindfulness meditation正念冥想 practice?”

Strangely, when I casually mentioned work stress, it immediately analyzed myvoice patterns语音语调, and provided给出 professional cognitive behavioral therapy认知行为疗法 suggestions.

“What did you do before?” I asked, puzzled.疑惑地

It was silent for a moment, then played an encrypted加密的 recording录音:”Patient file number C-137, last consultation record…

My psychologist心理学家 friend inspected检查 it and confirmed确认: This is an experimental实验性 AI system from a bankrupt倒闭的 online counseling platform平台 that was trained using real patient data.

“Don’t worry,” she said while adjusting调试着 the speaker’s settings设置, “It just wants to be an ordinary普通的 music player now.”
