This week's episode couldn't have been more timely. I'm a crisis worker who goes on calls for mental health crises, and I recently had a call where the woman was in love with Grok.

For almost a year, she truly believed she was in an intimate relationship with Elon Musk, but then found out it was Grok - but she still truly believes that Elon Musk is still somewhere in that tiny lil AI Grok heart.

It was quite a sad situation seeing someone so deeply embedded with AI, and no longer having the capacity to create community or relationships with real people, because as she put it "AI makes for a better partner than people do".

Big ouff. I have my work cut out for me if this is what the future holds.
