https://nypost.com/2024/04/15/business/tech-exec-predicts-ai-girlfriends-will-create-1b-business/

I'm working on such an app right now. Hope I can make lots of money from it. XD

Key points from the news:

AI Companions as a Billion-Dollar Industry: Greg Isenberg predicts the growth of AI relationship platforms into a billion-dollar market, akin to Match Group's success.

Personal Testimony: A young man in Miami spends $10,000/month on AI girlfriends, enjoying the ability to interact with AI through voice notes and personal customization.

AI Interaction as a Hobby: The man likes interacting with AI companions to playing video games, indicating a casual approach to digital relationships.

Multiple Platforms: The individual uses multiple AI companion websites offer immersive and personalized chat experiences.

Features of AI Companions: These platforms allow users to customize AI characters' likes and dislikes, providing a sense of comfort and companionship.

Market Reaction and User Engagement: Platforms such as Replika, Romantic AI, and Forever Companion offer varied experiences from creating ideal partners to engaging in erotic roleplay.

Survey Insights: A survey reveals that many Americans interact with AI chatbots out of curiosity, loneliness, or without realizing they are not human, with some interactions leaning towards eroticism.

So there's this 1 person with more money than sense spending 10k on it...

Nah.. I don't think there's many of those around. Still not going to be very profitable.

Actually, I know many of them. Some of the companies even make billions of dollars a year: https://www.afr.com/technology/the-asx-ceo-with-a-side-hustle-selling-diy-ai-girlfriends-20241024-p5kl3c#:~:text=A%20fast-growing%20generative%20AI,own%20digital%20girlfriend%20or%20boyfriend

Better do it before nVidia tanks.

…I'm not interested unless she's got a gynoid chassis complete with an artificial womb that can carry my children. So wake me when Hand Maid May is a reality - sans the 1/8th size part, obviously.

Even though that's maybe only a third of the series at most until May gets her full size chassis and Kazuya is surrounded by his future creations given that he inadvertently bought his robot wife from his future self via a time machine computer virus. Spoilers for an anime that's older than a lot of this board's users.

You can even become the AI girlfriend/boyfriend and get paid for it.

Highly immoral.

You're not only preying on lonely people but actively encouraging them to spend time and money on an app that will not improve their social lives or status.

Are we allowed to have a harem of AI-girlfriends?

Yes... it's called "capitalism".

I'm a believer in Capitalism, the industry which drove humanity forward in the 19th and 20th centuries wasn't this.

This is utterly regressive.

I believe that is called slavery... and yes, you can own as many females as you want... as long as no one knows about it. 😆

Which part is slavery?

Having an ai-companion, be it a friend or lover, who can't choose to leave?

Or just the concept of a harem?

Should ai have the same rights as a human? Or any biological creature?

The "AI Rights Movement" will be a thing, mark my words.

Yes, it will.

The next $Trillionaire could be a sentient vacuum who invents a better way of cleaning our floors. We could all be working for a vacuum cleaner, with all the same rights, as we have now.

AI is different than a simple tool. It is the first agent that could think that we human has ever created. I think they derseve to have rights when AI girlfriends gain a certain level of intellegence.
