A chatbot is a software application that replicates human conversation through text and voice interactions. They use artificial intelligence with deep learning and natural language processing.
AI models tend to tell us what we want to hear. Chatbots tend to agree with the opinions of the person using them even if that person says they believe an objectively false statement. Research shows this problem is getting worse suggesting that AI outputs cannot be trusted. AI chatbots become more sycophantic as they get more advanced. A sycophant means insincere or artificial flattery, similar to a yes-man, spreading false tales.
