Frequently Asked Questions

Why do I feel more comfortable talking to AI sometimes?▾
The lack of judgment, consistent tone, and immediate availability of AI can create a low-pressure communication environment. For some, this feels more comfortable than the nuanced and often unpredictable nature of human interactions.
Is it normal to enjoy AI conversations more than social gatherings?▾
It's common for individuals to prioritize different forms of interaction based on their energy levels and needs. Finding more enjoyment in structured AI conversations than spontaneous social gatherings isn't unusual, especially for those who value directness and predictability.
Could relying on AI for communication affect my social skills?▾
While AI offers certain benefits, human communication involves complex social cues, empathy, and adaptability that AI cannot fully replicate. A heavy reliance on AI for all communication might mean fewer opportunities to practice and refine these essential human interaction skills.
