    It may look innocent until the Chatbot nags you about buying that very cool new product they’ve heard so much praise about. This is very dangerous and needs tons of regulations.

      Everything you all are saying can happen in regular relationships too. A person willing to choose an AI likely isn’t going to be great at choosing an actual human who is good for them.

      In a relationship, the other person could also be manipulative, or it could be one sided, or they can pressure you to only live certain ways, buy certain things. Or they can backstab you and give your private info to others (family that took my SS info from my parents), or pawn your shit, or cheat on you with others. Like everything negative that might come from this could potentially happen in some remotely similar way in a human relationship too.

      I’ve been in and seen others in all kind of relationships that in some ways had these similar negative outcomes.
