Using Artificial Intelligence apps, "young men get in these AI relationships," says Professor Liberty Vittert. "And because the AI learns from you exactly what you like and don't like, you end up having these perfect relationships. So when you go into real life...there's ups and downs they are not able to deal with."

Interesting because:

  • There's a sizeable, arguably competing, demographic of women who consume AI companionship apps.
  • AI companionship made me discover my preferences, and what sex should be like, as someone who has minimal sexual experience. Meanwhile, porn doesn't really help since you're not actively involved in those encounters.
