As social chatbots and companion robots move from novelty to daily presence, they are beginning to shape how we experience connection, loneliness, and care. From elderly support to emotional companionship, these systems are no longer just tools; they are becoming relationships. In this super fireside chat, we explore what happens when humans form attachments to machines. Where is the line between support and dependency? Who holds responsibility when emotional bonds are designed? And how do we protect human agency in a world of increasingly persuasive, empathetic AI?
