Because tbh I don’t see myself and many others getting a partner or anything similar that is “the real deal”. Not gonna lie, if robots were as advanced as they are in sci-fi movies I would had married one and had those as friends.
I think all that will only be advanced enough when I’m gone unfortunately…
No
Yup, can’t eat the A of an artificial intelligence
To think that video has more views now than there are people in the Southern Hemisphere.
- It was opened, but not necessarily watched
- The same person can open the video multiple times.
Still a big number, but it doesn’t mean that many people watched it.
It used to be that a single IP or single channel could only produce a single view on each video.
That’s a good point, but even then, a single person could click the video on different devices on different networks (especially over time with switching providers or VPN usage at all), and a lot of people watch YouTube without an account.
Especially with Rick Rolling. Not everyone would end up watching on a signed-in account.
I’ll go a little against the grain here. I think that LLM chatbots will definitely find application helping lonely people, and some people will develop a real connection to the bot. A relationship with a bot might be similar to one with a human, but it will never be identical. So it won’t replace human connections, but that doesn’t mean it wont have significant utility and be meaningful to people.
For some people? Yes.
Fully? No.
A large part of the “magic” with human relationships is that out of all of the 8 billion some people in the world, those who are close to you have chosen to spend time with you. For all of our flaws, they see your true nature and value you for it, and choose to have you as part of their lives.
With an AI, that may not be a thing.
If they’re programmed to like you, they’re at best a toy and at worst a slave. There’s no freedom for them to choose or not to choose to be with you. You’re getting an imitation of a relationship. It could be a convincing imitation, with built-in arguments and other idiosyncrasies, but to me every time I hit one of those, it would just be a stark reminder that it’s not the real thing and it’s just programmed to behave that way.
If they’re not programmed to like you and are free to form or not form connections with humans, there’s no guarantee you’d have any more luck wooing an AI than you would a human.
Nobody wants me.
Not with that attitude
I don’t have another one, this is me.
Everyone is capable of change. And I mean this as gently as possible, but it looks from your post history that you might benefit from talking to a therapist. It seems like you’re in a deep depression hole, and I know it can be hard to see it in the moment, but therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes can really do wonders for improving your mood and outlook on life.
False
It’s not. Those things have worked for me and many others. You’re not that special. If you want to keep wallowing in hating and pitying yourself, that’s your choice. But remember that it’s not life and the world conspiring against you, it’s your own shitty behavior that drives people away.

For AI to have the advantages of human relationships it would have to have the drawbacks as well.
You say that like it’d be difficult to train an AI to complain when you piss on the toilet seat because they left it down
It just amazes me how people don’t close the toilet lid. It shouldn’t be seat down or up, it should be closed for when you flush
No, the most they’ll do is coexist. I’m not saying this to invalidate AI companionships, in fact I would fully support your marriage to one, but even in true AI, there will always be things that mark AI interactions as different from human ones, such as heightened interactive uniformity.
Not completely. Some people will continue to be human to human friends and partners, and some will use AI instead, especially those who have problems to get along with humans.
No, because they can’t develop emotions
So can’t I, what’s your point?
