The cross-sectional survey design was used among 200 participants using the latest conversational GPT-4 AI model in their phones using the convenience sampling techniques. Hypothesis one results revealed there is a statistically significant between the usage of the conversational GPT-4 AI model and the incidence of cyber crime [R = .255, R2 = .065, [F (1,189) = 13.223, P< .01]. Hypothesis two showed that the baseline usage of the conversational GPT-4 AI model significantly predicts increase in social media addictions [R = .434, R2 = .188, [F (5,195) = 24.147, P<.01]. Hypothesis three revealed that the usage of conversational GPT-4 AI model is significantly associated with an increase in both cyber crime and social media addictions [R = .474, R2 = .226, [F (2,185) = 5.991; P<.01].
