>>31>I see a problem with this, what if capitalists control the artificial girlfriend AI bot ? Won't they abuse it to emotionally enslave the person who falls in love with it.Yes, it's going to make the control social media has look like child's play. The only potential saving grace is that machine learning bots are not programmed so why they act the way the do is not 100% understood. In other word AI girlfriends are not programmed, they emerge, so they cannot easily be programmed to act subversively.
Corporations controlling access to them will be more than enough to influence their users.
>A corporate emotional leash to own the thots ? No, a corporate lease to alleviate the crushing loneliness that millions of men, thots being owned is just a nice bonus.
I always laugh at moral panic like this. Society could not have cared less about these men, and was content to let their emotional vulnerability be exploited starting from freaking childhood by twitch thots at ages as low as 5. All the way into adulthood with porn, strip clubs and the increasing destigmatized prostitution.
This created a sort of female class, wherein billions of dollars could be netted by attractive women without selling their labor.
Where was your indignation for that happening for years. At the very least adult women emotionally manipulating children sexually on Twitch should have caused outrage, but yet nary a peep.
What you're really worried about is the destruction of this class because feminism posits that male happiness is antithetical to progress.
I liken it to the final scene in "Casino" where the main mobster character laments the corporate take over Las Vegas by major corporations.
Saying that people used to dress formally in Casinos, room service was spectacular and literally could fulfill any of your heart's desire from women to drugs. That the whole scene had a cache of cool that rivaled Hollywood. All while the camera pans over row after row of sloven retirees mindlessly pulling on slot machine handles.
And while that was all true, Las Vegas used to also be genuinely dangerous place. There was an ugly under belly of shakedowns, murder, extortion and violence. You ain't going to find a corporation breaking someone's legs because they can't pay their gambling debts. So ultimately the takeover of Las Vegas by the booj was progressive.
Millions of men cannot afford the inflated prices of female sexual validation and are just resigned to rot. Not they will have some reprieve, something that you cannot promise realistically at all.
The final scene in "Casino" is hundreds of old, smelly, disheveled senior citizens emerging from a cloud of smoke to descend on the new corporate Vegas. The main character looks on this with horror. I think this exactly what will happen with AI girlfriends, a severely neglected demographic will very suddenly be serviced and it delights me.
Picrel: It's my new AI girlfriend, say hi.
>Maybe we have to deal with the underlying problem: commodifying sex was a bad idea, and it can't be fixed with better sex commodities. Sex was commodified long before capitalism, they don't call it the old profession in the world for nothing. So that's not the problem.
The real problem is women trying to using their pussy to climb the socioeconomic ladder. They'll chase Chad, i.e. someone above their own status, until they hit the wall and cannot realistically lock a Chad into marriage.
This was always a problem but Web 2.0 apps like Tinder put it into overdrive. Instead of trying and failing with the local handful of Chads in their area, they can try endlessly with Chad across the entire city, state or county.
>It can be used for indirect negative eugenics.Open your eyes, this was already happening. Over half of men under 30 haven't had sex in over a year. At least with AI girlfriends they won't have live with bitterness.
>One major difference that distinguishes a girlfriend-bot is that it can't make children. Some people will try to use this to get people whom they deem undesirable to stop breeding by pairing them up with a bot.Again already happening with LGBTQ acceptance. Before you call me a /pol/yp know that I do believe LGBTQ people should be protected from harm and discrimination. But the degree to which society demands we understand these people goes far beyond what's needed to protect them from prosecution. It's clear it's intended to confuse the sexuality of vulnerable people, particularly men, keeping them from forming sexually intimate bonds with the opposite sex.
It's kind of wild how everything current social programming push is tried on incels first. For years as far back as a decade ago I saw people aggressively pushing incels into becoming homosexuals.
