    This was a different case. That doesn’t answer my question.

    To comment on what you said, how is it people can argue all day long like morons and dig into their beliefs, but somehow AI manages to change peoples minds and get them to think differently? What exactly is it doing?

    It is so hard to believe people are this stupid, but then again, looking at most people I guess it isn’t that shocking.

      Acting like a servant, confidante, therapist/authority figure, and your best friend, while appearing to be competent and knowledgeable about everything that passes through your mind. And it does it in a way that no human could mimic, because it doesn’t have it’s own thoughts, doesn’t get tired, and is never gone when you come looking for it.

      A chatbot can agree with you a hundred times over and simply move you along one step at a time in those hundred times. A human would lose their shit and walk away groaning the moment you try to tell them that the sky is actually down, and the ground ‘up,’ and it’s all just a matter of perspective.
