| What does this AI addiction test check for? | This test looks at how often you use AI, how you feel when you can't use it, and whether AI is taking over too much of your life. It checks things like using ChatGPT all day, feeling emotionally attached to AI companions like Replika or Character.AI, feeling worried when AI sites are down, or not being able to do work without AI help. We also assess if you're developing romantic feelings for AI or prioritizing AI relationships over human ones. |
