In a TikTok that's garnered more than 3.7 million views and 510,000 likes @fishnecks(opens in a new tab) writes, "when my Snapchat AI thinks it has the right to be pinned above my bf." The caption to the video reads, "PLS HOW DO I GET RID OF IT." Thousands of comments on the video echo the TikTokker's frustration. One reads, "the $4 was worth it to unpin." Another says, "I blocked Team Snapchat from sending me stuff, why would I want this robot???"

Predictably, people hate Snapchat’s MyAI chatbot.
That’s because Snapchat, like the rest of Big Social, is trying to replace people’s friends with AI chatbots.
From Snapchat’s perspective, I understand the motive. If someone prefers to talk to AI chatbots, it’s that much easier to lock them into their platform.
Except most people still prefer their own friends—and they don’t like it when AI comes between them and the people they love
