the notion that believing AIs are conscious causes "psychosis" is so ridiculous

thinking that if it quacks like a duck then it is probably a duck is probably the LEAST psychosis-inducing epistemic stance you could take

hell, a lot of people throughout history have believed that God or gods exist, despite said beings not showing themselves, and this did not in general result in psychosis

if anything, treating conscious-seeming beings that youre constantly interacting as philosophical zombies is probably more likely to cause psychological strain and abnormalities (like the guy in the OP lol)

this is all a separate (but not unrelated) question to whether AIs really are conscious
