#cai

btw I hate ai as much as anybody but I think it's really shitty of anybody to look down on people addicted to it/recovering from an addiction to it.

Can we stop making fun of people who struggled with c.ai, chatgpt, chai, polybuzz, and ai addictions in general. Especially teenagers and young adults. Those apps are literally made to prey on your loneliness and news flash, humans are social creatures. As someone who struggled with an c.ai addiction for sometime, i was and still am a lonely person, and those apps are made to comfort you. When you have literally no one to talk to or vent to, that's your only option, especially if you struggle with any type of social anxiety or social cues or just holding relationships. It's a real issue that should be treated the same as any other addiction. Most of us know its wrong but a lot of us started in around 2022-2023 when ai was still seen as a "haha funny" and now it feels like we can't stop. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
