Bethenny Frankel Launches AI-Powered 'Skinnygirl Crisis Counselor' — Chatbot That Predicts Your Next Meltdown Before It Happens
NEW YORK — In a move that has Silicon Valley and self-help gurus divided, Bethenny Frankel is redefining personal crisis management with the release of an artificial intelligence chatbot that claims to scan your texts, calendar, and even Amazon purchase history to predict emotional emergencies. The chatbot, called "Skinnygirl Crisis Counselor," is already being tested by 500 early adopters who say it flagged a blowup with their boss, a breakup, and an impending "unhinged" airport rant before they even felt the cortisol spike. Frankel, whose recent legal battles with Reality Bureau and her ongoing one-woman crusade against Bravo have kept her in headlines, told reporters the tool is "the next logical step for anyone who has ever been me." Critics worry about privacy and the bot's tendency to suggest "a shot of tequila and a lip gloss" as a first solution.
