I'm starting to think that people might actually prefer 'arguing' with an AI Bot because there is the possibility that it might actually learn from the interaction, albeit machine learning. Arguing with human global warming fanatics is probably even less productive, like arguing with Covid/vaccine fanatics. I've got triple-jabbed friends who earnestly inform me that they suffered a 'terrible' bout of Covid just recently. If I was to say to them I never got jabbed, never got tested and have never suffered anything worse than the snuffles, which may simply have been the common cold for all I know, their eyes would glaze over and they would change the subject. Of course, I don't even try, because it would be a complete waste of time - like arguing with a machine.
