Obrolan sebagai Obat Kesepian: Membangun Ikatan Baru antara Manusia dan Kecerdasan Buatan
Unduhan
Meningkatnya fenomena kesepian berkaitan erat dengan meningkatnya penggunaan teknologi kecerdasan buatan, seperti AI chatbot companionship (AICC) yang semakin banyak digunakan oleh individu yang mengalami kesepian. Namun, masih sedikit penelitian yang mencoba membahas dampak psikologis dari penggunaan chatbot. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menyelidiki korelasi antara fenomena kesepian yang dialami oleh manusia dan peningkatan penggunaan chatbot companionship melalui analisis korelasional kuantiatif. Temuan dari analisis data primer, yang didasarkan pada partisipan penelitian (n=237), menunjukkan adanya hubungan yang signifikan antara kesepian dan persepsi penggunaan AICC. Temuan ini menyoroti pentingnya menggunakan AICC dengan hati-hati pada masa dewasa awal, walaupun AICC memiliki potensi mengurangi kesepian yang dialami individu. Ketergantungan yang berlebihan cenderung dapat berdampak buruk pada perkembangan hubungan sosial kehidupan nyata yang bermakna.
