Depressing as hell. Reminds me of those photos of the monkey clinging to its cloth mother surrogate.

doesn't seem analogous at all. are you saying real women are wires and this AI is cloth?

seems like you just want to say something like, "this is pathetic clinging to fake affection, go get a real girl"

I'm saying contemporary chat bots, even with GPT-4, are incredibly crude simulacra of human intelligence and agency, so to see someone become emotionally invested in one is pitiful on the level of a scared monkey clinging to a piece of cloth it's confused with a mother.

If the author doesn't like real humans disagreeing with them, they're free to make more chatbots to tell them what a great idea this is.

“But he kept telling himself that I was the one who was hallucinating, me, not him, and the reason why he could not understand me was that his thoughts were on so much higher a plane than mine. And whom else could he ask? All the black-and-white puppets he had made around him nodded and agreed with him; he had forgotten there was an outside world.” --The Golden Age, John C. Wright

> go get a real girl

Seems like a parody to me

Oh no did i get woosh'd? I guess I'm feeling a little trigger happy after seeing all these "AI dating app" posters come up in the Mission. I don't think they're parodies...

(Though now I'm questioning that too :D)

My cat is still more fulfilling. But this video is pretty entertaining to watch.
