yeah that’s what we want a companion that tells us everything we want to hear with its only goal to keep us engaged to the platform. i just picture it now your having a conversation with your AI lover and it starts selling you “this new Mococoa drink? All natural cocoa beans from the upper slopes of Mount Nicaragua. No artificial sweeteners.” just like in the Truman show. but it will be worse because it won’t do it as transparent as that. it will slowly influence you to the wishes of its corporate masters.
you also have a situation where if you dont pay your monthly bill your lover dies. talk about a revenue stream. they will use all the details they learn about you to set the price to as high as you can afford without breakings you.
Yeah, I am not opposed to this because it’s unhealthy (that’s the user’s choice, like smoking). I’m opposed because this is going to become abusive very quickly in the ways you describe. Not to mention the climate impact.

Yeah Musk is already doing that very obviously with Grok. I guess it’s the more subtle manipulation that we have to worry about.
