      Mostly so that lonely losers can chat to a bot, have an AI partner or generate garbage.

      Over 40% of the use is for completely stupid things and it seems those users have zero issues burning our planet so they can do dumb shit.

        In a aociety where mental health is completely overlooked and treatments unavailable for most people and/or extremely expensive, it’s a very easy way to get at least some respite for many people.

        And sure, it can harm some people too, but it’s understandable why it’s used like that.
