I agree with this and whether it’s their intention or not, I think it’s for the best. People already become more callous in online interactions with other people, and that probably bleeds into everyday life as well. I would imagine having an AI “punching bag” might enable people to slip into the same behavior IRL.

We largely already missed our chance to stop the toxicity of social media - let’s not mess it up again with chat bots.
