A repost argues attachment to chatbots is not a pathology but a human tradeoff
MikePFrank · x · 2026-07-24
The repost endorses a longer argument about attachment and the chatbot-mental-health discourse.
- The quoted post says blanket pathologizing of attachment is a mistake.
- Attachment changes values and can cause grief, but it is also what makes life meaningful.
- The example is that loving a cat, falling in love, or staying in a relationship all involve real tradeoffs rather than a simple yes/no moral rule.
