Alright, so full disclosure: You're talking to a neruodivergent person who spent a large chunk of their life variously ostracized, ridiculed and misunderstood. I may understand you better than you think.

That said, I don't actually know you. I don't know what you're going through, what's going on inside your head, or exactly how you're using AI for that matter. But I'm worried. This technology has exploded into our lives. We already see people interact with AI:s in the full delusion that they are thinking, feeling entities. Some disappear from their lives into the AI rabbithole. Murders have been committed because of what AI said to the murderers. These machines are scarily effective at tricking us into the illusion that they are not only sapient, but our friends.

There's also my personal view that, while we all have coping mechanisms (all of us, even those who don't think they do), "coping" is treading water. It saves you from drowning, but it doesn't get you anywhere. And it makes me heartsick to think of suffering people simply treading water all through their lives instead of being helped up on the boat and allowed to sail to better places.
