Loneliness drives a disturbing trend: more people seek solace and advice from AI than from real connections.
FO Take · Score 20
The preference for AI over human counsel signals a profound social decay. We are so atomised that algorithms now offer comfort beyond what friends or family provide. This isn't progress; it's a surrender to isolation. What does it say about our society when a chatbot is a confidante?
The strongest counter
AI offers accessible, unfiltered advice without judgment, filling gaps left by increasingly busy social circles. It's a tool, not a replacement, for human connection.
