Can a chatbot be your new best friend? Asking for a friend, of course.

Have you ever considered a chatbot as a potential best friend? Can a chatbot provide the same level of emotional support as a human friend?

I see chatbots like ChatGPT as an assistant that aids me with my work, but as a friend? I haven’t thought of that possibility ’til now. Chatbots may converse like humans and may answer my queries, however they still lack feelings, so I guess it’s still hard to consider them as friends.

I can see the potentials because a chatbot can answer substantial topics than a real human can😊
-
Chatbot can provide some level of entertainment and companionship but it is also important to maintain a balance and seek out human relationships for more meaningful connections and support.
-
It’s a great helper that you can count on when doing a task. You can think of it as your work friend.
-
No, because chatbots responses came from pre-programmed scripts and decision tree
-
And Chatbot is different from ChatGPT, a specific type of machine learning model trained to generate text in a chatbot-like manner.

No, chatbots can be helpful tools for providing information and assistance, they cannot truly replace the companionship and emotional support that a human best friend provides.
-
I think potentially they can be, but since they don’t have feelings expect unfiltered replies and textbook answers to your situations when you share about your personal conflict. So I recommend to talk to an actual friend.

I don’t think so since they are “trained models”. AI does not have emotions.
-
No, chatbots can simulate conversation and offer some degree of support but they cannot provide the same level of emotional support as a human friend who has personal experiences and emotions.
-
While a chatbot may not be able to replace a human friend, it can certainly provide a level of companionship and assistance in certain areas.

other chatbots can’t give you proper suggestion but they can be trained
