Can we stop repeating clickbait titles from cancer tech magazines? If you post, then why not just give us the gist of the article? For instance here: what’s the feature, and why is it a concern that one might „fall in love“ with it?

"Advanced voice mode", they sound more human

This exact same thing happened with the very simple ELIZA chatbot back in the 1960s. Joseph Weizenbaum (ELIZA's author) wrote about it in his book "Computer Power and Human Reason". He was shocked and scared. He had written ELIZA as a cute demo, and people treated it as if it were human.

How does it make you feel that exact same thing happened with the very simple ELIZA chatbot back in the 1960s?

It makes me feel like crappy news has been pumping the same phony stories for 60+ years.

Yeah, nah. I don't think so.
