@noyes that's not a question that this study can answer. They sent out a survey to existing replika users and 3% of them wrote in the comment box completely unprompted that were it not for replika they would've died by suicide.
If you scroll up in the thread, you'll find my breakdown of the the paper and all the problems that it has.
