Human body, esp. brain (or more broadly even nature) has a motivation to do more with less energy expenditure.

Drugs allows you to cope with hard things or allows you to escape the toll you have to pay.

Similarly, AI allows brain to do more with less energy expenditure. This is why it looks so tasty and is very addictive.

Your brain doesn't work at that hard, AI allows this, however there's no free lunch on that planet. The effort you give into something returns as quality and finesse, however it's tiring as well.

Addiction is a complex is a hard problem regardless what you are addicted to, it's not a light or easy matter to discuss, though.
