Because tbh I don’t see myself and many others getting a partner or anything similar that is “the real deal”. Not gonna lie, if robots were as advanced as they are in sci-fi movies I would had married one and had those as friends.
I think all that will only be advanced enough when I’m gone unfortunately…
What about children, do you imagine you can have them with the robot?
Children are a big part of romantic relationships, evolutionary they are the main reason for them.
I want kids but I won’t find a woman and I’m poor so adoption is out of the question. I’m fucked I guess.
Not completely. Some people will continue to be human to human friends and partners, and some will use AI instead, especially those who have problems to get along with humans.
At the point where you and the AI can see someone straightening their tie in a certain way and you and the AI can exchange a single wordless glance and you both burst out laughing 'cos it was just like that thing that you both saw 6 months ago and found hilarious then - then maybe.
Not before.
