AI isn't going to listen like a therapist. Not when it's that advanced. Its gonna act like a human.

Also pron is a thing and there's people that live stream it. And we still have relationships.

Which again the vast majority of people prefer.

You do realize we can't even actually create AI that thinks, and doing so requires a breakthrough, which could happen in a day or a hundred years or never, right?

Also the vast majority of the AI fields don't want human intelligence, they want compliance, because human intelligence is vastly inferior for repetitive and mundane tasks.

The real thing is going to be the only thing that will meet their needs for the majority of people. A few will be able to delude themselves into thinking that's all they need but for most who act like they don't need human interaction now, it will prove to be a delusion all the same. And until those folks learn to adapt to a world that doesn't always give them what they want then its probably better off they're removed from the gene pool by their not entering real relationships

Do you live in the same world? People struggle to escape the human condition every hour of the day. They do anything they can to numb their minds, they hang around people that don't challenge them in any capacity and tend to very closely mimic their views, and "interaction" is largely just discussing whatever is popular or problems at work or family. AI very easily replaces that with no mess for a ton of people.

Every major technological advancement has pushed people into increasingly distant and constant forms of communication. Having your friend and lover living in your pocket isn't a stretch by any means.
