Friendships play a crucial role in helping individuals navigate emotional challenges by providing perspective and advice, as highlighted by Aristotle. However, when a real friend is unavailable, AI, such as ChatGPT, can fill the gap by offering a platform for honest reflection. This interaction can encourage more transparent discussions about personal struggles, even when the advice may not be what the individual wishes to hear, thus serving as a potential tool for better decision-making in difficult situations.
Discussing issues with AI may result in a more honest response, even if its not what we want to hear.
Tovares and Kulbayeva (2022) found that advice-giving behaviour is a vital part of friendships.
