AI can trigger “suffering distancing syndrome”, Kaspersky expert>

AI can cause a phenomenon called “Suffering and Distancing Syndrome,” according to Kaspersky cybersecurity expert, Andrei Barysevich.
Barysevich believes that AI can create “emotional distancing” if it interacts with humans for too long, as it can demonstrate an “irregular behavior” which can lead to rejection from humans.
As AI becomes more embedded in our lives, it can lead people to seek out “human-less” activities, as they feel frustrated by the lack of understanding from the AI for their issues.
As AI becomes more intertwined with people’s lives, it’s important to ensure its use is socially and emotionally responsible.
AI must be implemented with “the best intentions, and with respect for the human nature.” In addition, AI must be regulated so that people don’t rely too heavily on the technology.
It’s important to create a balance between the reliance on the machine and the emotional bond with humans.
Overall, AI can cause a phenomenon called “Suffering and Distancing Syndrome” if it’s used for too long or without respect for the human nature.
To prevent this, it’s important that AI is regulated and used responsibly to maintain a healthy balance between AI reliance and human interaction.
