New studies by Openai and MIT Media Lab have revealed that, the more users spend time talking to Chatgpt, the more they feel. The connection was established as part of Two studies still revisedA fact to OPENAI analyze "More than 40 million Chatgpt interactions" And targeted user surveys, and another at MIT Media Lab after the use of participants for participants for four weeks.
MIT study identified several ways of speaking to Chatgpt – whether by text or voice – can affect a person’s emotional experience, beyond the general conclusion that higher use has led to "Increased entry and reduced socialization." For example, participants who already trusted the chatbot and tended to attach themselves emotionally in human relationships felt more soliable and more emotionally dependent on Chatgpt during the study. These effects were less serious with the vocal mode of chatgpt, however, in particular if Chatgpt spoke in a neutral tone. Discussing personal subjects also tended to lead to short -term loneliness, and it is interesting to note, talking to Chatgpt on more general subjects was more likely to increase emotional dependence.
The great discovery of OPENAI study Was that having emotional conversations with Chatgpt is still not common. "Emotionally expressive interactions were present in a large percentage of use for only a small group of heavy heavy vocal fashion users that we have studied," OPENAI writes. This suggests that even if MIT results are as worrying as they are non -surprising, they are not exactly widespread outside a small group of power users.
There are important limits to the research of Openai Lab and Openai, such as the two studies covering a short period (one month for the MIT, 28 days for Openai) and the MIT having no control group to compare. Studies add more evidence to something that has sounded intuitively true for some time now – speaking at AI has a psychological impact on the speaking humans. Given the intense interest in making AI a convincing conversation partner, whether In video games or as a means of SIMPLIFY THE WORK OF YOUTUBE CreatorsIt is clear that Mit Media Lab and Openai are right to want to understand what will happen when you speak at AI is the norm.
