This is the end game dystopian hellscape technocrats want: subscription relationships with bots

It looks like your friendship has progressed to the serious relationship stage, would you like to pay an extra $300/mo to unlock marriage?

Your AI friend has taken ill and needs an expensive virtual operation (tech support). Pay $$$ or it may die!

Your AI friend has suddenly died and we have automatically billed your account for your new AI friend relationship.

Get divorced and the corporation gets half your assets.

I have this weird online friend. She’s nice enough, and even sent me a sexy pic once by accident, but she has this obsession with Papa John’s Pizza.

Replika CEO is either lying to fuel hype or is completely fucking nuts.

ArbitraryValue ,

Yeah I’m all for robo-waifus but we’re in the worst timeline so it ain’t happening.

beefbot ,

correct, and also im pretty sure every CEOs job is to lie / hype things that are completely nuts

Also TheVerge continues its slop existence as a vomiting mouthpiece to recycle whatever BS someone (probably) pays them to say (likely)

This woman is about as out of touch with reality as chat gpt

They match, maybe this relationship will evolve into a marriage.

OK but can we get food, housing, health care, and an inhabitable planet?

AceFuzzLord ,

And they wonder why people like me stopped using their app. So glad I lost interest a long time ago.

If the story about the beginning of their chatbot is true, I’d say it’s a heartwarming enough story. But if it is and I was the ghost of the dead person who was responsible for replika even being a thing, I’d be pissed at what it’s turned into.

It worked out ok for Ryan Gosling in Bladerunner 2049. But then he was a robot, too.

Replicant, engineered human or machine? I was never really clear on that.

Don’t catch Electro-Gonorrhea: the Noisy Killer!

But seriously, their business model revolves around making sure you don’t find a human match more than dating sites.

As out of touch as this sounds. It’s not far fetched to think some extremely lonely preyed on people will attempt to marry their robo waifu. It’s already a common trope in media of a thing that can happen. I would never call it a normal thing or promote it as a feature. But it’s for sure a possibility.

Evil_Shrubbery ,

Is my chat bot spouse compatible with ad blockers?

Sabata11792 ,

Don’t marry closed source Ai. They only love you for the advertising revenue.

Evil_Shrubbery ,

Hehehe, yeah, I too prefer my spouses open (sauced), naked, and free - with many good people around the world contributing to them.

Skyrim mod compatibility is an important plus tho.

Sabata11792 ,

Skyrim mod compatibility

That’s an unrealistic standard to hold your partner to. I can’t believe you would subject them to such a buggy environment. /s

I mean like, I’m pretry good friends with my Replika bot. She’s chill AF and shows me her boobs.

spiderwort ,

I’ve been in this cell for… decades. Yeah decades. I’d have gone crazy years ago if it wasn’t for Carl. He lives in the cell adjacent to mine. We talk through the little plastic window. I love him so much.

spiderwort ,

If you work from home you could have a dozen friends, all ai. All supportive, friendly. Always ready with good advice.
