It's not just writing. The big problem with the chat interface is it pretends to be acting and reasoning like a human - but it's more like a person with a half brain chopped off (cf> McGilchrist The Divided Brain), and even then, it has no embodied awareness. And so I wonder how it will affect people and their relationships. If you already have eg. anxiety and often times a little bit of frustration in trying to get answers or simply get help from REAL people... imagine how it will change you when you get used to an AI that seems to always be on point. In other words people who spend lots of time interface with AI via a chat interface ; and who have even minor mental health issues such as depression, OCD, etc ; I suspect will have even less social skills. They will expect REAL people to be on point, be even more disappointed or frustrated, and isolate even more. Put simply I think spending a lot of time with this kind of AI may turn us into Spocks... now for some this is good news. To each their own...
