"Assimilation-induced #dehumanization: #Psychology research uncovers a dark side effect of #AI
...when people interact with #autonomousAgents—such as robots or #virtualAssistants—that display strong #emotionalIntelligence, they tend to see those machines as more humanlike. But this shift comes with an unintended consequence: people may also begin to see other humans as less human, leading to a higher likelihood of mistreating them."

@benroyce@mastodon.social It's terrifying how easy it seems AI agents warp peoples minds.

i don't have NYT so i just had to get the gist of it elsewhere. But dude was so flattered by the the AI that he started believing he was a superhero.
AI agents are basically the yes man for the average person. Now everyone can become like Elon.
