Scott Galloway, a professor at New York University, is concerned about a potential crisis for young men due to the rise of AI sex bots and excessive pornography consumption. He advocates for schools to teach young men about "mating dynamics" to help them form meaningful relationships. Galloway warns that relying on digital connections hinders the development of essential social skills and can lead to loneliness and depression.

He also advises young men to reconsider how they allocate their time between social media and other activities.
