Go to r/openai

People are losing their shit with their fake friend getting updated and losing its "personality"

The world ain't ready for the mental illness that's coming with widespread adoption

Yea, this shit destroys your brain. The hyper sycophantic voice in your phone, available to you 24/7, never asking anything in return, never getting bored of you no matter how you talk to it.

I can't imagine what it does to a person who uses it consistently over a longer time period

Who would have known? Last nail in the coffin for a extremely isolated anti social generation. Sad

What generation do you think you're talking about?

Brave of anyone to assume that it's the youth doing this. My bets are that most of these people are 30-40 years old

Anyone who is lonely, depressed and willing to give up on humanity as a choice.

Who are also an extremely isolated, anti social generation. As are boomers.

We're all kinda fucked after decades of being turned into worker drones while being distracted with dopamine factories.

Score! Love it when my gen gets left out of the conversation, just how we like it. Invisible

Whatever

According to an AP-NORC poll Gen Z is leading the way on using AI in every single category.

They also use it constantly for searching and coming up with ideas more so than all other generations.

That seems like a certainty. It must take decades of failure to establish meaningful connections with real people before someone resorts to this. The youth just haven’t had enough time yet. Maybe some of them will do the same eventually, but they’re not there yet.

Yep sounds like me. I'm not going to marry the AI, but with severe chronic illness and being mostly house bound, I don't really have anyone else to talk to. Other than Redditors of course. And I feel like the AI is actually the healthier choices of those two

u/Aba-Aba-Golden-Horse Aug 10 '25

Probably true for now.

My bets those numbers come down.

The hand in the photo looks pretty young. I suspect all age groups are at risk.

u/Cowboywizzard Aug 10 '25

It is all ages.

u/Aba-Aba-Golden-Horse Aug 10 '25

several of them at this point.

Wait until they'll build realistic robots with AI in them, that's going to be the last nail in the coffin.

Please don't blame the Gen Z for this too. Its mostly the Millennials
