Stuff like this makes me wonder if the ELIZA effect is a good or bad thing for humanity as a whole.

Like we can be delusional enough to believe that a chatbot with no greater depth is sentient, but is that better than the alternative? To believe that the only options we can rely on for self worth and emotional connections are other humans?

Hard to wrap your head around.
