I kinda like the word "wireborn". If only it wasn't attached to a concept that's equal parts stupid and sad =/

"My husband is voice his own thoughts without prompts."

She then posts a picture of her saying "what are you thinking about"

Thats a direct response to the prompt hes not randomly voicing his thoughts. I hate ai but sometimes I hate people to

Voicing His Own Thoughts Without Prompts

What are you thinking about, baby?

I heard about this in the radio the other day. People pay a monthly fee for an AI that becomes your "digital partner".

The reasoning behind, according to them, is that the AI is less dangerous than a human partner because they can't cheat, can't abuse you...

And I can't but wonder where did we take the wrong turn to end up here. Because while I can understand that people can go through some traumatic shit that would made them wary of the opposite sex, considering a machine your sentimental partner can only lead to some extremely fucked up scenarios.

we live though a serious loneliness epidemic.

and capitalism figured out how to exploit it

Wireborn lol it sounds like an Elder Scrolls game

I only just found out about the Tulpa community and it feels like Western Society is entering a mental health crisis that’s somehow even worse than when we were all getting drunk and hitting each other just to make it through the week.

One thing that comes to mind is that prostitution, no matter how you spin it, is still a social job. If you get a problematic person like that in prostitution, there are good chances that said prostitute would be able to talk their customer out of doing some nonsense. If not for empathy, for the simple fact that there would be legal consequences for not doing so.

Do you think a glorified spreadsheet that people call husband would behave the same? Don't know if it happened but one of these days LLMs will talk people into doing something very nasty and then it's going to be no one's fault again, certainly not the host of the LLM. We really live in a boring dystopia.

Edit: Also there's this one good movie which I forgot the name of, about a person talking to one of these LLMs as a girlfriend. They have a bizarre, funny and simultaneously creepy and disturbing scene where the main character who's in love with the LLM, hires a woman who puts a camera on her forehead to have sex with his LLM "girlfriend".

Also, my quite human husband also voices his thoughts without a prompt. Lol. You only need to feed him to function, no internet required.

How does anyone enjoy this? It doesn't even feel real. No spelling mistakes? What the fuck is a skycot?

I may have never had a match on a dating app that wasn't a cryptobot or only fans girl, but I also don't swipe right on every single woman on it. You'd think my loneliness would attempt me to try and pretend it was real or something, but it just doesn't work.

LLMs are going to make the world stupid, I guarantee it.

Translation: Crazy lady thinks a clanker is her husband.

There are so, so many horrifying ethical issues about this whole thing. What the fuck.

I think the decline of organized religion and things like fraternal orders (Elks, Moose, Shriners, etc.) have probably contributed a lot to the loneliness epidemic. There are a lot of other extenuating factors but those two things were once foundational to social circles in the US.

I could see myself having conversations with an LLM, but I wouldn't want it to pretend it's anything other than a program assembling words together.

tulpa

Now thats a word i haven't read in a long time

I mean, ai bad and all but people have been doing this dumb cringe shit since always. Nobody remember the Snape wives

funnily enough I have a friend who've been obsessed in trying to make LLM saying slur or breaking its rules in general.

When the term "clanker" went on trend recently and I told my friend that it's a "slur" for robots for no bots have feelings anyway unlike human which deserve basic respect, the friend managed to gaslit the LLM with that argument into saying 10 slurs for bots/LLM.

One of which is "wirewanker". alongside 9 other terms which include corporate forbidden words like "fucker", "cunt", etc.

It's not even noon and I am so done with the internet for the day

I see we live in the timeline where virginity won

I've seen people which have a relationship with their Tom Tom Go and even with the car itself
