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."

Why not?

As long as you know that you need to talk differently to people vs robots (have different social skills) as they are not the same thing, I think that a person can get a good time with robots.

(of course if you did it for years and you didn't have any relations with real people while at it, it can cause problems)

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.

I don't like how the video in the link this post provides sound to me that they assume every man out there would make babies with a female, once they started a relationship. That is false.
