peer review my AI induced existential crisis (preprint pending)

Researchers have discovered a groundbreaking phenomenon: people talk to AI chatbots, feel weird about it, then convince themselves it's a novel psychiatric disorder requiring academic analysis. The energy here is pure 2026 academic desperation—frantically publishing preprints about "AI psychosis" using chat logs from folks who probably just spent 6 hours arguing with Claude about philosophy. It's the digital-age equivalent of blaming the radio for making you think too much, dressed up in peer-review language.
