those who used ChatGPT for "personal" reasons — like discussing emotions and memories — were less emotionally dependent upon it than those who used it for "non-personal" reasons, like brainstorming or asking for advice.

That’s not what I would expect. But I guess that’s cuz you’re not actively thinking about your emotional state, so you’re just passively letting it manipulate you.

Kinda like how ads have a stronger impact if you don’t pay conscious attention to them.

AI and ads... I think that is the next dystopia to come.

Think of asking chatGPT about something and it randomly looks for excuses* to push you to buy coca cola.

Or all-natural cocoa beans from the upper slopes of Mount Nicaragua. No artificial sweeteners.

Tell me more about these beans

They're not real beans unfortunately. Remember, confections are only lemmy approved if they contain genuine legumes

I’ve tasted other cocoas. This is the best!
