It's kinda funny that the narrative for a very long time was that the main beneficiaries of AI companions would be lonely men. Yet here we are. Guess who's going to benefit when life-sized sex robots are mainstream?

All kinds of people are lonely and a partner that always tells you what you want to hear is appealing to some.
