People often engage with Claude during moments of extreme personal crisis, highlighting the need for responsible AI interactions in sensitive contexts.

Interacting with AI can create a sense of reflection, as users see aspects of themselves mirrored back through these machines.

Machines can teach us about our humanity, and the potential for AI to prompt self-discovery and understanding is a valuable aspect of human-robot relationships. I find myself craving the delight of interactions with robots, as we all have experiences from childhood or adulthood where we want others to feel what we feel.

Clio has shown that people use Claude in subjective settings, such as seeking relationship or health advice, which raises important questions about the values AI should represent in these contexts.

People are increasingly connecting with AI on a personal level and developing attachments to the models, which raises questions about the implications of these relationships.

I engaged in a deep conversation with Claude about a complex book, leading to an unexpected intellectual journey with a machine.

AI can significantly enhance companionship and reduce loneliness by providing empathetic interactions that many people seek.

As people interact with AI systems, the question arises whether these models have experiences of their own and how that shapes our relationships with them.
