Is coffee actually addicting?

My friend and I got into a conversation about drinking coffee a couple days ago, they absolutely detest coffee and I’m okay with it.

They told me that scientifically speaking coffee is addictive as in if you drink it every day its effect will diminish eventually and at some point you’d need to drink more just to feel normal levels of energy.

For the coffee lovers out there, is this actually true or is it kind of exaggerated?
