Many of us use ChatGPT or Gen AI everyday. Maybe it’s for work; drafting emails, brainstorming ideas, or fixing up your resume. But have you ever used it for something more personal — like a vent session, or to speak to a friend?

Audrey and Ryan discuss the plus points, the drawbacks, and how to balance between virtual “friends” and our human companions.
