Show 093 Woebot App

There are a lot of good articles from creatives worried about how humans do not necessarily want to be around other humans. But the humans still want, still need and still crave attention. This is a problem.

There are now apps that are providing support to people who are stressed or have anxiety. Woebot is one of those apps. It uses a foundation of cognitive behavioral therapy to assist the human in dealing with the problem by tracking moods and providing suggestions.

It does not yet provide a human to cuddle.
