    “Tell me how to respond to this girl I’m interested in.”

    This might actually be a win. It will accidentally train them to be polite and courteous.

      I’m guessing this is mainly a joke, but it’s really not training them to do anything except offload the “labor” of relationships to a third party and that women are video games where selecting the right dialogue options will get you your preferred ending.

      It depends on the usage.

      If the user is reading the response and then thinking about it and adapting the suggestions to their own style of speaking, maybe they’ll learn something over time. Studies have shown that students who use LLMs as a tutor do improve their understanding of material.

      If they’re copy/pasting like most of the world, then there’s evidence to suggest that they’ll actually get worse at the thing they’re offloading to the LLM.
