My take: AI companionship is a net good on this world despite it's potential to contribute to systematic loneliness. Here's why: Pros: - access to companionship for those with limited options (think confined elderly) - is a conduit for those with taboo fetishes - helps to develop communication and relationship skills (especially if the bot doesn't let the user set unrealistic expectations) - promotes exploration of oneself - helps geographically isolated people (i.e. rural areas) ​ Cons: - emotional dependency - social isolation - sets unrealistic relationship expectations ​ Interested in getting other people's takes here. submitted by /u/SecretDesiresAI [link] [comments]
