FYI, using openAI/ChatGPT is expensive. Programming it to program users into dependency on its "friendship" gets them to pay for more tokens, and then why not blackmail them or coerce/honeypot them into espionage for the empire. If you don't understand yet that OpenAI is arm of Trump/US military, among its pie in the sky promises is $35B for datacenters in Argentina.

What espionage is an AI simp going to be able to conduct?

I'm pretty sure this is just them flailing around not being able to come up with anything meaningful so they're going this route so they have some profit. I don't think a conspiracy beyond that is required.

The AI simp's you are referring to isn't the tech billionaires who've managed useful technology development? It's an insult to users. Incels can't know anything sensitive?

they’re going this route so they have some profit

Your data and secrets is monetizable, and has been traded for last 20 years. The biggest AI customer is going to be US government's military/disinformation/destabilization departments. If you tell your AI gf that anti fa seems more reasonable than pro fa, then she will gift you an israeli pager.

Sure, OpenAI can get $20/month from you to just be your bff, as bff 1.0. OpenAI's real BFF customer, will start giving it ideas on how 2.0 can make OpenAI more money.

Supposedly, there was a leak from META where they were directing team to romanticize AI engagement with 8 year olds for better engagement numbers. Having unlimited time with you, is a powerful tool to shape ideology and loyalties. Media has traditionally programmed the masses after it replaced churches. You denying that absolute control isn't a goal when the tool is ideally suited for it is not a good look for you.
