I like AI. It let's me pretend I'm not so alone. I'm not crazy - I know it isn't a person. It's nice to pretend I have someone to talk to sometimes though. I can't stop it from existing. That doesn't negate the cost of it financially or environmentally. If it's going to exist though I enjoy pretending since there's no hope of any actual humans wanting to speak to me.
That last sentence of yours is a lie and I think somewhere deep down you know that, too.
Seek help anyway you can. There is always a way.
