Im the same I'm only 30 though.

Why would I want to invest emotionally into a literal program? It's bizarre, then you consider that the way you talk to it shapes the responses.

They are essentially talking to themselves and love themselves for it. I can't understand it and I use AI for coding almost daily in one way or another.

I think this is why I find it so uncomfortable: you’re just getting weird hyped up responses mirroring your own inputs. I’ve not used ChatGPT for a while because I found its insidious desperation to please really creepy.

I use Claude when I need a chat interface, but a recent release made it start fawning as well. They seem to have dialled it back a bit, and I’ve added custom tone instructions, but occasionally it forgets and reverts to emoji-ridden slop.

Yup, I get the same ick factor when I hear about it.

I think you have to be a certain personality type to get hooked into the chat emotional connection shit

But at the end of the day, you're essentially just hyping yourself up, alone. It's quite sad as well.
