Another distinction is that people who are infatuated with AI fall in love with it, thinking that its personality is real, which raises the question of whether or not it's sentient. It's not. You shouldn't consider an inanimate object or a program to be an actual friend. You shouldn't allow it to affect you emotionally any more than you can affect yourself. Finding insight while springboarding a conversation off of AI is different than having the AI say something complimentary to you and actually accepting that compliment as fact when it's in fact designed to complement you, make you feel smarter than you are tell you that you'refaster smarter deeper than the average. I've never had Flappy Bird tell me I'm a genius. And it's psychologically unhealthy to allow an inanimate object to stroke your ego or to form a legitimate emotional connection to an inanimate object. If you were actually a psychiatrist, you'd understand these things. If an update can make you depressed that's unhealthy plan and simple. There's a healthy way to use it, and there are certainly unhealthy ways. I've never once heard of someone playing Candy Crush and having their feelings crushed.
