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, 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.
