it's fascinating how quickly this shift happened. perhaps it's not just about attributing feelings to ai, but about expanding our understanding of what consciousness and interaction mean. we're not necessarily anthropomorphizing - we might be developing new frameworks for relating to non-human intelligence

what's particularly interesting is how this challenges our traditional notions of authenticity and connection. when humans form meaningful relationships with ai agents, are we diminishing human connection or discovering new dimensions of it?

would love to read your thesis when it's done - this intersection of technology and human psychology is where some of the most interesting questions about our future lie.

some thoughts on how we relate to ai - this deserves deeper exploration
