Teenagers turning to AI companions are redefining love as easy, unconditional and always there.
-
So if you get a bot companion… it’s perfect and it loves you unconditionally as much as a robot can but eventually you get bored and decide to upgrade… proving you were the shallow one all along.
Or maybe it proves no one actually believes that’s love which means they will never be truly fulfilled with a artificial replacement.
-
If that AI companion isn’t on your own hardware, it will likely require a subscription eventually. And running an AI agent yourself isn’t cheap.

The president isn’t a teenager, and as a sociopath wouldn’t have been representative of teenagers even when he was one.

That's literally like half of marriages.

Also, humans in general are dumb. But moreso your thing.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but a cat can’t love you.

I'm not so sure. Facebook was a great tool to create local communities at first.
Then it became greedy and change the algorithm for ads and being attention driven. If you remove facebook (which I don't use since months), it's harder to find what's new around you. Especially on the countryside. -
I can only imagine how insidious this is going to turn in the future. People will undoubtedly use this technology to violate humans in ways we have never even thought of.
Allowing a corporation to control the only thing that person feels love for is a recipe for disaster.
People need connections with other people. This is the antitheses to this need.

Very astute observation. Bravo.

That's precisely why it was a mistake. People did those things before Facebook, but now? So many people have no clue how to exist without it, and all the while, it's weaponized against people's ignorance by bad actors who are greedy for power and money.
Hell, we've had to create decentralized tools just to get some of our agency back. And yet, even knowing that their data is fodder for those same bad actors, people still flock to those previous systems like Facebook, TikTok, Xitter, and Instagram.
Social media isn't a mistake because social media is inherently bad. It's a mistake, because humans in general are too stupid to protect themselves.

That's the best no context quote of the year so far.

Please also call me when the sexbots are here. I'd like to preorder if possible.
