A lot of people are using AI as a trusted friend, because they don't really have anyone else. A good friend would, I hope, talk someone out of doing something dangerous just to get a silly viral video. With AI being trained on the internet, that's going to have a very different take on things, as the internet only cares about the spectacle, not the person performing it.
Agreed. We need to take away Internet access from psychologically susceptible people. Those with any mental illness should probably access the Internet only under supervision. They can request a URL and an online proctor can be automatically contacted who will view their screen and make sure that they are not viewing dangerous things.
It is truly not just children who need protection.
Agreed, we must protect those diagnosed with sluggish schizophrenia[1] from the internet by sending them to off line vacation homes in Siberia. Can't risk them becoming disillusioned with our great motherland!

Great way to ensure nobody seeks mental health treatment.
