On average, my discussions with chatGPT are more pleasant and insightful than the ones I have with real humans

The best conversations I still have are with real people, but those are rare. With ChatGPT, I reliably have good conversations, whereas with people, it’s hit or miss, usually miss.

What AI does better:

• It’s willing to discuss esoteric topics. Most humans prefer to talk about people and events.
• It’s not driven by emotions or personal bias.
• It doesn’t make mean, snide, sarcastic, ad hominem, or strawman responses.
• It understands and responds to my actual view, even from a vague description, whereas humans often misunderstand me and argue against views I don’t hold.
• It tells me when I’m wrong but without being a jerk about it.

Another noteworthy point is that I’m very likely on the autistic spectrum, and my mind works differently than the average person’s, which probably explains, in part, why I struggle to maintain interest with human-to-human interactions.
