Grateful to fantastic co-authors Fransisca Ting, Julian Savulescu, and Ilina Singh. Many thanks also to Juliana Gerard and Muskaan Singh, who organized Adaptive Education '24—the wonderful meeting where this work was first presented—and also served as editors for this special issue of proceedings.

We also consider what these tendencies mean for education: Anthropomorphism may boost engagement with AI tools (and perhaps even improve some learning outcomes), but it also risks having students trust inaccurate or misleading content.

Anthropomorphism of LLMs really is a 'double-edged sword.'
