... I thought Rep meant agent
I would have thought the same if the sub name wasn't in the image. I've heard of Replika. It makes me genuinely wonder what affect an AI girlfriend will have on people long term both mentally and physically. It's just such an alien concept to me.
I'll understand it for people buying those sex dolls once they're self cleaning. Until then... Well, they're called prostitutes, fellas. They're even less likely to repeat what you tell them to the feds.
I installed it once and after a period of time I still couldn't get it. As she doesn't bring anything to the conversation (but reaponses on your input), she is mostly useless to me personally. But I can see desperate persons wanting to talk to a mirror if everything else fails.
It's what incels think talking to a woman should be like 🤮
Ok so I looked it up and it's marketed as an AI friend. Redditor OP possibly thinks it is his girlfriend but nothing about the wording in the post to me suggests that without making an assumption
Without context, that’s the only way to read it. That leads me to side with the Rep on this dude’s writing.
So did I and I’m confused by the post’s title.
