What To Get Your AI Girlfriend For Valentine’s Day
Our society has pushed “easy” over “healthy” to a whole new and dangerous extreme to solve the loneliness epidemic. Inherently lazy, addicted to convenience, and enormously frustrated with the dating climate, a new solution just presented itself.
In the immediate wake of the launch of OpenAI’s GPT store, AI girlfriends have made their debut. Against OpenAI’s usage policy, did anyone truly believe this wouldn’t happen? Human beings have become the dominant species because we are extremely adaptive, imaginative, and proficient at problem-solving.
It’s in our DNA and as soon as scientists figure out how men and AI can procreate together, women won’t be needed by men. Sounds crude but it’s reality.
Men will no longer have to worry about “the relationship.” Perfect wives, perfect kids, and a perfectly happy life with no muss or fuss will be theirs for the taking.
The Stepford wife will be a reality. Men will never have to worry about what to get their sweetie for Valentine’s Day as anything or nothing will be fine. It will be fine even if they forget Valentine’s Day altogether.
Alternatively, the same will hold true for women. Perfect husbands, perfect kids, perfect harmony, that is what life will hold for them. Those who think this scenario is just a fantasy need to understand that every solution under the sun once was, until one ingenious mind figured out a plan to turn fantasy into reality.
According to The Guardian, Liberty Vittert, a data science professor, recently told the Sun: “Physical AI robots that can satisfy humans emotionally and sexually will become a stark reality in less than 10 years.”
Instead of actually being truthful about the problem between men and women today, leading to a healthy solution and best of all outcomes for the future of humankind, we are now simply choosing the easiest, less optimal bandaid that places population control and possible extinction on the horizon.
Our species is orchestrating our own demise and elevating fake people in the same stroke. This is the reason Elon Musk warned the global AI and scientific community to take a collective pause when it comes to AI.
Unfortunately, we can’t put the genie back in the bottle.
For naysayers who aren’t alarmed, let me bring up an additional point to ponder. The loneliness and isolation epidemic our nation is currently struggling with is at its worst yet. That’s with the benefits of technology available along the way and currently. It hasn’t helped up to this point. “Today” will hardly be different in my opinion. Here’s why.
The truth of the matter is, human beings are irreplaceable to each other. That is the reason Zooming will never provide the same experience and inner fulfillment as meeting for coffee. It definitely requires less effort but something inside you is left wanting more.
AI girlfriends or boyfriends, wives or husbands will be no different. Initial excitement will lead to eventual dissatisfaction and ultimately buyer’s remorse. And you won’t even have another human being on the other side of the equation to work through the issues or blame.
Which leads to the subsequent question and more unchartered territory, “How do you return an AI wife?”
Human relationships are definitely messy, but don’t think that the AI relationship won’t eventually be just as messy or messier. The true solution can be found in reconnecting people…not substituting them.
