You can tell me to mind my own business… but reading that message is a good example of my concern about the AI tools. We might laugh at a story of a guy marrying a robot or something… but the more these tool seek to replace our human interactions, to fill emotional connections that are what make us human and unique, the more concerned I am that the next generations will start to “prefer” AI friends over real life ones. I’m definitely not implying that’s you or what you’re doing. Clearly I don’t know you. But I worry that my kids will feel safer taking to an AI than parents or friends. There will be a time and place for it, but this slope is slippery. And this comes from someone learning about AI and using it for work. I’m not afraid of the tech itself- I guess I’m afraid of what I could/will do to most people over time… does that make sense?
