> Actively seeking out a chatbot is different

A lot of them aren't actively seeking them out. They are pushed at them and they just try it.

> than wanting to talk to humans.

The disaffected just want to talk. I'm sure they'd prefer humans but once the chatbots seem to be good enough in their absence they get a bit trapped there because the bots are too sycophantic and they get conditioned to want that from humans too which will not happen.
