I watched Her, the AI movie from circa 2013, about a year ago. Its plot does show how you can go from seeing your AI friend as a pleasant, helpful companion, without the physical messiness, to being trapped by it, or psuedo-enslaved by it.
One of the enormous problems here is that if an AI chatbot makes something up and as a result, a 5-year-old follows the chatbot's recommendation to swallow arsenic, is anyone going to face criminal or civil penalties? How would the parents even prove that the chatbot told the child to swallow arsenic?
The NSF is providing significant funding to research AI in education. Check out this research being conducted at https://engageai.org/ It is so dystopian. I will be posting an article about this soon.

Right that is a good question. I wonder if section 230 applies here?
I plan to "opt out" out too! I have been going down the rabbit hole of AI in education and what I come across is very disturbing.
oh please share can you give examples?
