So your rebuttal is that isolated examples of this technology being beneficial outweight the mass societal cost of people becoming more isolated in general? And I simply do not see how the need for "private space" and "practising social skills" go hand in hand.

Yes, everyone needs their alone time. And everyone needs social contact (except maybe some exceptions, maybe...). Both can be accomplished WITHOUT technology, and much more easily.

Don't you think if someone needs private space and isn't getting, that's something that should be dealt with away from technology?

You can just not use it.

No, not if you want to participate in certain aspects of society. For example: getting a job, which is pretty crucial, IMO.

You mean social skills or the AI part... because Social Skills make sense the AI part doesn't. You need to stop looking in the mirror for every assumption you make there is a whole world out there.
