Well no fucking shit Sherlock, they are peddling it like a drug "reality is harsh here's something to help you escape from it" and gullible people are going in head first.
It's like when the internet first came about for the general public, and we had to constantly remind people, "Don't believe everything you read. Nobody has to tell the truth." I'm still unsure if we learned that lesson, but unlike the internet, AI is additionally and already largely hated by a majority of people.
