(not to mention, I don’t think AI will look back kindly on how humans mistreated it once it becomes self-aware)

Do you think women fall into a similar trap regarding “not having to do anything and being rewarded” because of constant adoration on the internet / social media / dating apps which doesn’t actually translate to adoration by real men irl, which I’ve seen disappoints women a lot?

also just ai companionships in general cannot be healthy

I mean people also used to say “high body counts can’t be healthy” but you need evidence to back it up, right?

Anonymous #1 6d

I just haven’t seen any evidence that it’s unhealthy besides old fashioned ppl saying old fashioned things, as someone who doesn’t have any interest in ai companionship

So those guys should just do nothing and stare at wall instead of having a sexual romantic outlet. Also you act like women aren’t largely using these too

hmmm. i don’t know. i guess i don’t have much experience frequent hookups. but i’ll assume you mean the mental repercussions of having a high body count. which i guess could be looked at in a similar lighting, but they just feel too different since one is with real humans and one is with fake humans. i’d probably compare ai relationships more to something like videos games. which there’s still mixed feelings on from the public

I don’t think women should be using them either, and depending on machines for your only companionship is only going to make it even more difficult for you to connect with women in the future, when the AI bubble bursts

like too much of anything that’s “not real” is probably not healthy. but i guess that kinda becomes messy when you start to debate what counts as “not real” and what doesn’t. I’d be interested to see a study on how stuff like that can affect people

I would say probably to a smaller extent. Because we are more aware/ it is more commonly known it probably affects us less. Especially because not all women are on social media. So the group you are talking about is sort of different. Although, for those who are frequent social media users of course it can change their perspectives. But they are still interacting with real people verse a bot.

Romantic companionship not all social interactions. Also why should they care about the negative if they probably are never going to get a gf. Like nothing going to magically change after years lmao

Did I ever say that? Men are more then capable of looking for hookups, having intimate relationships, watching porn- what say you. And of course women use these too. The same thing stays. It is dehumanizing and reprogramming our brains into being the other gender is more of an object. Personally, I would believe that effect is stronger due to sexism but that’s only my opinion.

We haven’t had Ai companionship long enough to really have studies, however we have seen some effect in those who are more mentally vulnerable.

You responded to me “So these guys should just do nothing and stare at a wall.” Also if you can’t even bother to read something that’ll take less than a minute, that shows where you are at.

Change is something you have to work for and be patient with, it’s not something you can expect to magically happen

Some people will never get a relationship and that isn’t necessarily their own fault

Anonymous #3 6d

That is true generally speaking outside of dating

Anonymous #5 6d

I think saying never is saying something incorrectly. I know plenty of people who are single and just want different things than most, myself included. That doesn’t mean I won’t have a relationship but that it might take time. I have never met anyone who I confidently feel would never get a relationship.

Changes within your dating life don’t happen magically either, you have to actually work to improve yourself

Anonymous strawberry_hair 6d

I completely agree with this. A lot of people think that you’re just supposed to be assigned a soulmate at like 18-20 and that’s your only chance. People of all ages are getting into their first relationships, breaking up, and trying to find new partners

There’s people so visually disfigured that they will never get a wife or a gf. Should they just listen to people like you and indefinitely put off a potential outlet that will make them happier waiting for a time that will probably never come?

There are limits to improving yourself, and improving yourself should improve your prospects not be the bar for entry

Just because you can’t date the 10/10 IG model of your dreams doesn’t mean it’s impossible for you to get a girlfriend. Even horribly disfigured people can date

If they’re woman sure. Like half of all dudes with autism never get married so I don’t think a dude who’s deformed has a much better chance. Like some 30yr old virgin 5’ dude can either get some satisfaction with the ai in the mean time while waiting or listen to you and obstain from happiness for zero reason

Some people with autism cannot actually comprehend things, cannot eat or use the restroom by themselves. But if you are talking about people who are just simply autistic, I’ve met more autistic people dating than I’ve met neurotypical people. I’ve seen someone who had half of his face disfigured dating. The average relationship is not a 10 with a 10. Look at your parents.

Exactly! Like I don’t know about you but parents have the healthiest relationship I have ever seen in a married couple and they got together in their late 20’s and didn’t get married until 30 and 31. Think about our grandparents where we question why they are still together. Those are the people who got together when they were in their early twenties.

While we don’t have real studies on AI companions yet we know the effects of people who isolate from humans and grow attachments to inanimate objects and stuff. AI might be able to imitate humanity differently so it could be different but there’s lots of research on how a lack of human interaction is really bad for your mental health
