> Kids are social creatures, I don't think the interaction from AIs is going to be so overwhelming

The problem is Alexa is a very basic and kids get bored with it. Chat based AI mimics human conversation a lot better and people will be spending a lot more time with it, using it for homework, relationship advice, therapy, as an imaginary friend, at work etc.

I heard of cases of psychologists discussing conditions negatively reinforced by ChatGPT, can’t recall any such stories about Alexa or Siri for instance.

Interacting so much with the system , it’s inevitable that humans will start to pick up its quirks.
