Because tbh I don’t see myself and many others getting a partner or anything similar that is “the real deal”. Not gonna lie, if robots were as advanced as they are in sci-fi movies I would had married one and had those as friends.

I think all that will only be advanced enough when I’m gone unfortunately…

        Have you ever heard of teledildonics? I guarantee if there was a demand, you could eat that. It could be programmed to respond to where and how fast you perform. It would be multi-functional so you could enjoy the devices in other ways.

        I agree with your conclusion, but not your reasoning.

    At the point where you and the AI can see someone straightening their tie in a certain way and you and the AI can exchange a single wordless glance and you both burst out laughing 'cos it was just like that thing that you both saw 6 months ago and found hilarious then - then maybe.

    Not before.

        • It was opened, but not necessarily watched
        • The same person can open the video multiple times.

        Still a big number, but it doesn’t mean that many people watched it.

    A large part of the “magic” with human relationships is that out of all of the 8 billion some people in the world, those who are close to you have chosen to spend time with you. For all of our flaws, they see your true nature and value you for it, and choose to have you as part of their lives.

    With an AI, that may not be a thing.

    If they’re programmed to like you, they’re at best a toy and at worst a slave. There’s no freedom for them to choose or not to choose to be with you. You’re getting an imitation of a relationship. It could be a convincing imitation, with built-in arguments and other idiosyncrasies, but to me every time I hit one of those, it would just be a stark reminder that it’s not the real thing and it’s just programmed to behave that way.

    If they’re not programmed to like you and are free to form or not form connections with humans, there’s no guarantee you’d have any more luck wooing an AI than you would a human.

            Everyone is capable of change. And I mean this as gently as possible, but it looks from your post history that you might benefit from talking to a therapist. It seems like you’re in a deep depression hole, and I know it can be hard to see it in the moment, but therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes can really do wonders for improving your mood and outlook on life.

    What about children, do you imagine you can have them with the robot?

    Children are a big part of romantic relationships, evolutionary they are the main reason for them.

      I want kids but I won’t find a woman and I’m poor so adoption is out of the question. I’m fucked I guess.
