    Maybe I’m old, but how are they getting addicted? It seems like it’s chatgpt with a costume wardrobe.

    Also pretty sure some have a human in the loop, since I got called a troll and a fool by the AI when I tried to find the limits of one LLM character

There are countless of times where I chat with certain bots and while the initial conversations were colorful, it eventually dissolves into generic LLM-esque repetition
