Sorry you can’t stop me I’m doing it rn
I completely judge. Perhaps I am not politically correct, but we all have limits
if someone has ever "considered an ai lover" they should be forced to get the words "weird freak" tattooed on their forehead so i know never to interact with them
Brb going to go and kiss a mirror
I guess the payment processors have no choice but to shut down all LLM chatbots
I didn't expect this movie to be relevant but here we are. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_2000
Then again, sex dolls have existed for a while now.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I'm not going to judge the people considering AI lovers. They're trying to fulfil a basic human need in an increasingly disconnected and uncertain world. We can't stop it, eventually it will become normalised and I'm concerned for everybody's safety.
Most people who do this aren't going to host their own models, they're going to use commercially available apps.
Aside from the vast amount of money that'll be made by the company that gains a monopoly in this space, because that's generally what happens in tech these days, the data they gather WILL be used to improve the systems that already try to manipulate you regardless of whether you use an AI companion or not. It'll make targeted advertising seem as innocuous as billboards by comparison.
