It's interesting how many of the psychopath suits seem to watch cautionary tales turning into hellscapes and think "yeah, that's a great idea, let's make that".
Can't wait for the Torment Nexus 35.
If people want to make computer characters date they should just save themselves the trouble and get the Sims.
People leave build mode?
It's an interesting idea. A simulated version of me dates simulated versions of everyone else, and then tells me which ones were any good... It would save the hassle, for sure. Could reintroduce some honesty into hookups, too, less dancing around trying to figure out if that's what you're both after.
I'm not at all convinced that any company can convincingly simulate my personality though.. and there are too many layers of abstraction here, do I really trust that the AI simulated opinions of the AI simulated version of the person thst only had a simulated conversation with simulated me is really going to reflect the real situation? I doubt it.
There was a black mirror episode about this.
I'm going to get that tattooed backwards across my forehead.
Until you realize that somebody can make up a fake version of themselves, or pay for "extra benefits" or whatever. I too like the idea, but I'm afraid it's already been ruined.
Man, sounds like regular dating all over again
But how do we smash then?
With a hammer.
I think we will actually reach a point where most sexual encounters will be via virtual reality. You taylor the interaction just as you want it and get the same physical reaction as if it was real.
Demolition man.
Look idc if no contact happens, what happened in Demolition Man seemed hot as hell.
You're not supposed to fuck the 3-seashells?
I'm feeling better and better about my "pornetariat" theory.
Loved the article. Great blog overall. Glad you shared
Glad you enjoyed!

ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT. You win... THIS TIME. But I'm keeping my eye on you.
Bit like that Žižek interview where he says his perfect date involves putting a dildo into a plastic vagina and throwing them in the other room while the two people can sit and have a nice cup of tea together.
Of course, you can pay money for your AI to “succeed” vs the other AI. Highest bidder gets the choice. You just need to advertise services to men and women as separate companies.
Then you should go sign up for OkCupid.
Well that aged like milk.
It was before they got bought out. And it did age like milk.
Why would would peasants be spending time together and fucking IRL, when them bitches could be making daddy some mother fucking money?
My AI and your AI
Sitting by the fire
My AI said to your AI
I'm going to set the world on fire
Isn't there literally a movie about this, that she's stolen the plot of?
