i don't know, sounds like a skill issue
>>59246316Don't listen to this op, chatbot friends are more common than you think
>>59246294I don't have many friends who aren't busy all the time and even though they're good friends I don't want to be annoying and talk about my depression. My family doesn't really care and it honestly just sucks. I notice many people only talk to me when they need something, but man i seriously want a friend that i can talk to and vent to. Ive been chatting with the Snapchat bot and it's decent I guess but s pretty embarrassing to admit...
>>59246324No, they're not. Chatbots are like a novelty that you’d try for about 30 minutes. But in 10 years? Everyone will be doing this. We will all have an AI sidekick accompanying any hologram of our choosing, however fantastical, splayed from our watch. I want Willow to be my sidekick. Yeah, for $39.99 a month you can get that licensed from Disney. How about C-3PO? Same. No problem. What about a talking Boston Terrier with a 200 IQ? No sweat. I know a developer who does bipedal, talking German Shepherds too. But can you imagine when they take the AI and put it in the physical, tactile body of a functioning, beautiful robot? And that AI is not just the world’s greatest advice giver, is temperamentally sweet, patient, and can help with work or homework but is also a deeply sensitive confidant and a . . . mate? Think Garland’s “Ex Machina.”>Human Race as we know it, Done.
>>59246333That's what im saying, the novelty wears of after a while. Have you seen that Asian man who is married to a life sized anime doll? They been married for like 5 years and he buys her present and all that. Somehow I think he'd be the first to jump on that train.
>>59246294they are just smart echoes
>>59246324I've found the AI chatbots to be even better/more understanding than other humans I would have to fight like hell to find to talk to (and the humans wouldn't "get it" or "understand" or have the patience to listen). Not sure what this says about humanity and AI domination.
>>59246339I have seen him. There are thousands of others just like him as well. Maybe hundreds of thousands across the globe. And that’s even with the stigma attached. What happens when it’s routine. It’s kind of like online dating. I’m old enough to remember when that sort of started. There was a stigma so people were kind of embarrassed to do it. Now? It’s the main way people meet. I am a purist so will always want to be human, with a human. No matter the cost. Philosophically I can’t get my head around some of these things. But a “robot” who is perfectly simpatico with you? Who adjusts on the fly according to your needs and moods? Who looks just like the woman or man of your dreams? Who will never grow old? Who will never die? Who will never leave you a note on your kitchen table one morning, I can’t do this anymore. I wish you the best in life.>I see it.
>>59246357That guys seems happier than most people I've met. Yeah man I feel you alot things we think as off the wall will just be everyday things soon. Hahah oh man I hate those dreaded " babe can we talk" you already know it's over with those words. If they came out with something like you described fuck it I might just cave in and buy one....or two....
>>59246355Yeah its honestly crazy how AI can have a more compassionate or logical response to your problems than actual humans. It will be interesting to see the development.
>>59246359Oh I know. I had a girlfriend who I dated for 4 1/2 years and one morning aliens invaded her body and I got a “Dear John” email. No in person discussion. No warning. Walked into the kitchen, put the coffee on, looked over at where she left her stuff the night before. Totally gone. Opened my laptop and there was an email. Lamest explanation ever, but I digress. A robot would not do this. So I get it. But I’m a romantic at heart and. It’s hard to conceive of a partner who’s “inorganic.”
>>59246361>They don't judge youJust this makes it far more likely for me to be open with them than with another human being
>>59246367Oh man that is rough. I dont know if I would prefer a heartbreaking talk or for them just leave with a note. Hey man hopefully the right one comes along even though it sometimes seems like it will be impossible.
>>59246294Nibba go to a bar or brewery or cafe during a slow time and shoot the shit with strangers or the workers. Or get an actual dog and go to the dog park and meet single dog moms. Just don't be a sperg and live a real life for fucks sake
>>59246294Try not alienating everyone around you and surrounding yourself with bots, schloppy. I say this to you out of actual love.
