Heavy ChatGPT users tend to be more lonely, suggests research

Yeah stop chating with your chatgpt girl friend and find real one.

You mean the LLMs with "personality" programmed into them for no other reason than to foster a parasocial relationship that increases user retention are causing people to become lonely? No fucking way

I personally would feel even more lonely if my only 'friend' was a computer program that can never actually care about me.
