How many products powered by AI do you often interact with?
Some use Alexa to control their smart home with their voice.
Some use Siri on their iPhones to create reminders and appointments. Some use ChatGPT to get their questions answered, solve tasks, and more.
Those aren’t AI tools you use once in a while, but they’re already incorporated into our lives. Some people have become so attached to them that treat them like humans showing politeness and kindness by using words like thank you or please, asking what they like/dislike, their opinion about certain topics, etc.
While there’s nothing wrong with that, the way we interact with AI now could reveal how the future human-AI relationship will look, and, in this article, I’d like to take a moment to analyze something we might’ve overlooked.
