This makes me think if ChatGPT-based bots could be useful for teaching social skills in a therapeutic context. A therapist could use such LLM to synthesize examples of realistic dialogue by describing people and the situation, and discuss them with the patient. They could set up a bunch of bots with (hidden) priorities and goals, and have the patient navigate a conversation/situation with them - whether as a short exercise, or a prolonged one (e.g. couple weeks of talking with ChatGPT-powered fake "friends" on an IM app).

In fact, take the last bit as a free startup idea: a platform for psychologist and therapists to set up GPT-4 (or whatever comes next)-powered chatbots, with an easy interface for configuring their personalities and setting up scenarios for patients to navigate, and helping evaluate their progress over time.
