    People are lonely and dating sucks. Humans provided a similar one sided relationship service as well. (Sugar babies come to mind)

      Yes, yes. And yes.

      But

      Do you think openAI or Google, or X or whatever billionaire behind the AI involved in these “relationships” cares even minimally about the mental well-being of these people?

      The problem is not just the dating an AI thing, but who is managing these AIs.

        No, but I wager neither does anyone else, or they wouldn’t be dating a datacenter.

          I’m not really sure these people fully understand what they are doing or they wouldn’t be doing it at all.
