I chose option 2 because it captures the deeper risk behind the other options.
As we grow used to interacting with AI in a command-and-response pattern, we may start bringing the same habit into our conversations with other people.

As AI chatbots are designed to be polite and accommodating, I do wonder what will happen to this polarised world as «conversational AI grows»? Will it be dialogue or confrontation? Will AI be at the service of peace, cooperation, development, stability? The short answer: nothing points that way today! Food for thought…
Boredom is what my mind generates when I see these Poll questions!

What is even this question? Another attempt at pushing AI in some form? Talk negatively, but talk?
Is this still a translation platform or officially AI prompters platform?

That was a purely rethorical question, right?
