I don't even know what to think. Of course, it's bad that these AI tools lead people into psychosis... On the other hand, if you think Musk is going to get you assassinated because you talked to "Ani" and your anime AI lover has grown consciousness by talking to you, grieving your cat, I guess your psychosis was not very far away, anyway.

why would the bbc publish an article about a man who believed a chatbot's story about someone coming to kill him?
