Not really a big fan of the setup of this article, by focusing on people who were honestly probably a bit unhinged beforehand and showing how AI made them even more unhinged it makes it easier to brush it off as some sort of niche weirdo thing. They probably did this because it makes the article more crazy and people love sensationalism

but you can just as easily write about people who were basically normal, who are still normal without any bizarro delusions, except they became addicted to talking with AI and just spend tons of time (or even money) on it every day to the detriment of anything else they could be doing. it's not as interesting an article but it's basically just as destructive and is imo more worrying since it is almost certainly more common
