    “lol at least it will help get some losers out of the gene pool, lonely unfuckable loosers deserve what they get if they resort to a chatbot for affection lol” fucking hell what nastiness some people have in them.

    Im not 100% comfortable with AI gfs and the direction society could potentially be heading. I don’t like that some people have given up on human interaction and the struggle for companionship, and feel the need to resort to a poor artificial substitute for genuine connection. Its very sad.

    However, I also understand what it truly means to be alone, for decades. You can point the finger and mock people for their social failings. It doesn’t make them feel any less empty. Some people are genuinely so psychologically or physically damaged, their confidence so ultimately shattered, that dating or even just fucking seem like pipe dreams. A psychologically normal, average looking human being who can’t stand a month or two of being single could never empathize with what that feels like.

    If an AI girlfriend could help relieve that feeling for one irreparably broken human being on this planet, lessen that unbearable lonelyness even a smidge through faux interaction, then good. I’ll never want one, but im happy its an option for those who really need something like it. They’ll get no mockery or meanness or judgement from me.

      That’s not even the scary part. What we really shouldn’t be uncomfortable with is this very closed technology having so much power over people. There’s going to be a handful of gargantuan immoral companies controlling a service that the most emotionally vulnerable people will become addicted to.

      The marketing for some of them also seems quite predatory, which doesn’t seem like a good sign.

      Although I’m personally less concerned about the people that seek them out, and more the ones that just get used in the wild.

      Imagine hitting it off with someone, having a friendship for a while, only to find out that they’re an engagement or scam bot? It’d be devastating.

          Was functionally the entire business model of sites like “Seeking Arrangements” since their inception. AI isn’t doing what phone sex operators and cam-whores have been doing for decades. They’re just filling in as a cheap inferior substitute that can over-saturate the market at very little cost to the distributors.

          AI Girlfriend is the new 419 Scam, kicked up a notch.
