Agreed, but I think it's also common for people to anthropomorphise these things and common for these chatbots to reinforce and support their users views. I think that's a problem for more people than just those struggling through disorders or an emotionally turbulent time. But I think those people are particularly vulnerable to the flaws, even with functioning mental health and a strong support network. But yeah, a lot of these pieces dramatise and anthropomorphise in ways that aren't necessarily helpful
