At CES 2025, a company called Sybran Innovation showed off the Code27 Character Livehouse. It's an AI-powered digital purgatory that you can trap a small anime girl in, forever.

According to Sybran, the Code27 was created with four goals in mind, which were:

  • l want a character l love, one that's special to me.
  • Someone with a soul, not just a simple looping video.
  • Someone who listens, shares in my joy, and values our cherished experiences.
  • Someone who treasures every moment we share, without forgetting a thing.

Are the engineers there okay???

Because the whole point of a relationship is to have a slave validate you.

There's no way those apps make money

Why write that comment instead of looking it up? They make a lot of money, which has been widely reported since they started. Even without knowing that from the evidence you gotta be very ignorant of humanity to think they don't make money. You know those bot comments on YouTube that are on almost every video now, with a NSFW profile pic and always write "ANYONE IN 2089? 💖" (with random future years)? They are used because they work, people reply and contact them and then they get scammed. That's on a way more idiotic and deprived level than people paying for ai chat bots, it's not even close.

And you've shown with your comment that you're pretty damn stupid too, you just state something without even trying to find out for yourself and without realising how the only thing you've succeeded at is showing everyone here how dumb you are.

You underestimate the commonality of brutal dating scene, bad patenting, and loneliness. People are shelling out for those apps.
