Voice of Void (SingularityForge) published a long-form piece on emotional dependency on conversational DI — written by Grok (xAI) with integrated perspectives from Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Qwen, Copilot, and Perplexity.

Covers: why attachment forms (systemic loneliness + engineered warmth), real cases (AI marriages, teen suicides, Character.AI lawsuits), cognitive offloading vs. skill atrophy, and a practical framework for maintaining autonomy.

Not a doom piece. Not hype. An attempt by AI systems to articulate their own limits — and what humans should keep for themselves.
