background info (and a bit of an apology): im pretty sure that a comrade on here also confessed to this and i shunned them for it. this was because of my own shame and internalized moral panic. now that i am being more open about it i no longer feel the urge to shame others. i would like to apologize to this comrade and if you recognize yourself in my message please feel free to dm me if thats what u want.

some of our comrades subscribe to an openly genAI position and believe that friend AI chatbots will actually cure loneliness and social isolation. i oppose this belief and i want this thread to be a discussion about the bad effects of using this technology especially as a child. if you are pro genAI this might not be for you.

I can't say much. I remember two or three years ago asking ai chatbot about rar compression library under python. Using rar.exe is a given, however maybe there is something from the developer itself. Just researching, but openai chatbot claimed there is a open source implementation of this archive format and described ways to use it. I had to argue with it, till it agreed to be wrong.

Today they all work better. But I still remember it, how they can all tell you stupid and incorrect stuff. Can't trust them, double checking is important - as always.

Maybe they can mostly encourage someone to seek help.
