    I forsee a lot of psychopaths in the future. Kids are going to grow up with LLMs and learn to manipulate them as just objects. They may not draw a distinction between other people and AI and just act extremely manipulative with no sense of conscience toward actual consciousness.

      You might turn out to be partly right but other people aren’t chatbots, so it probably wouldn’t work very well.

      I wonder what decision process the parents went through: “we’re not spending enough time with our kid, let’s buy them an ‘intelligent’ teddy bear instead”? That in itself already seems wrong.

      There’s many factors.

      Kids can grow up to be assholes without chatbots, or grow up to be decent people with chatbots - as much as I’d like to undo the whole AI hype of the past years.
