Yes based on my experience with the world (and really just common sense), the most likely causal link here is that being lonely causes you to both talk with ChatGPT more and to use affective language in your conversation.

knowledge used to be passed person to person and chat got represents the furthest echelon from that so…yeah, talk to robots instead of people and you’re gonna be lonley

Elon’s kids names already sound like robots so they’ll fit right in.

Filthy casuals using ChatGPT as a crutch to feel lonely. Just get some clinical grade depression like a real man.
