    The link-bait headline frames it as AI delusions causing domestic abuse, but the article is really about people becoming obsessed with AI companions and then projecting that onto real humans. conflating a symptom with the root cause is a classic media move.

Does the article make any attempt to distinguish between AI causing harm versus people with existing vulnerabilities latching onto AI as a tool?
