Some corroboration of your intuition, from a “MAPLE Tale”, written by a resident:
https://tales.monasticacademy.org/tales/merging-with-the-algorithm/“Through practice the mind becomes quite malleable and can merge with or encompass other minds. With this malleable mind, I merged with, completely met and took on, the mind of “the algorithm”, or as I call it, the mind of the machine, this collective mind, (or cybregor), that drives the global “machine” of this system of destruction.
However, this mind (cybregor), is very powerful, and some of it got stuck in “me”; I was unable to fully let go of the mind I had taken on and met.
I soon came down with a series of bad symptoms. I lost the momentum I had had in my practice. I felt like I had been hit by a truck. I was extremely exhausted, had this terrible energy stuck in my head, I was experiencing weird emotions that I couldn’t regulate well, and I was having strange physical symptoms as well. I told someone who had asked about the symptoms I was having, and word made its way to Soryu.
Soon after, Soryu called me into Turtle, the room where he has meetings, and he asked how I was doing. I told him the situation as best I could given the brain fog from this mind still stuck. He understood. He said, it’s like meeting a horrific murderer rapist and inviting them in, except it is magnitudes of times worse.

Yes, it’s like that.“
So I guess we can add dangerous (possibly long-term-debilitating), ambiguously-consented tulpamancy to the list of harms?
