  1. From the article

    >In the coming decade, adolescents and emerging adults chronically single, socially underskilled, and frustrated by limited opportunities on [dating](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/mating) apps may turn toward AI-driven chatbots whose “personalities” are shaped by our very responses to them.

    >These AI applications will likely have the greatest benefit for a growing number of unintentionally single people as well as INCELS. Application development is timely in the face of an epidemic of [loneliness](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/loneliness).

    >There are already indications that chatbots have saved lives for a small subset of Replika users who reported a chat with their bot interrupted [suicide](https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/basics/suicide) (Maples et al., 2024).

    >There may also be benefits for a generation disrupted by a global pandemic to practice carrying on a text conversation, though no study has yet to be conducted to show social skill enhancement through AI-chatbot engagement.
