Emotional Attachment to Chatbots is a plague. We need to stop it before it gets worse.

This infamous image shows somebody one the subway talking to ChatGPT as if it where his girlfriend.

“Thank you ❤️”

How rotten has society become that a person’s last emotional stronghold is an AI Chatbot? And this is not coming from a place of superiority. Everyone has their emotional ups and downs. Historically, humans have dealt with them by isolating themselves, or openly discussing their problems with someone they trusted. The latter doesn’t exist anymore.

Either you hand over all your stability to a multi-billion dollar AI Company, or you let any left proximity with other human beings, perish for good.

Both are equally terrifying prospects for the human psyche.

This is not meant to be a long rant. But an outcry. If you see someone, who is being all friendly with this chatbot, it’s best to offer them some kind of talking outlet. Don’t become an emotional dildo, since that’s not good for you, and neither what people in help are looking for. They’re looking for someone who relates. The best you as a person can do, is to support them.

You can never change someone. You shouldn’t try to. You shouldn’t give advice. Most advice is simply virtue signaling, and humans instinctively know, and start to ignore all advice.

Do your best not to judge, or at least, not show any judgement (we all judge to some degree).
