How the fuck do people do it? Like is there something else more wrong with me?
It says it's AI. It reads like an AI. I'm desperately lonely too, but it doesn't remotely come close to even a hint of being a real person.
Maybe it's the user interface? The constant awareness of the AI girlfriend URL?
When I play videogames, I know I'm not ACTUALLY driving a racecar, but I still have fun.
I think it has something to do with the person needing something other than a human relationship. Its like those lifesize dolls that some guys are into. They meet needs that are different to a human relationship.
I really think it’s people craving a non-threatening, no-stakes “intimate” relationship
Look man those life-size dolls.
I don't get em either. They look like a lot of work. They weigh 80lbs but can't walk on their own, clean themselves, and their eyeballs can fall out.
So if it's "connection" with something "human like but not" ok I guess I can see it. Probably better for the species
