You think people forming personal connections with AIs instead of real people is a good thing?

Real people suck, the world is burning, let them have their AI friends in peace

I think that kids making fake friendships after school instead of fake murdering AIs might have some positives. I hope it can help kids develop social and communication skills.

If the AI is thaught to have good communication skills then even if the kid would benefit from it, the kid would end up expecting good communication from others and that would make him feel like everyone around him sucks ass in comparison to his AI friend
