Yes, there are women in chatbot relationships, and yes, they know their AI boyfriends aren’t real. But …why? Friend of the pod Bridget Todd (There Are No Girls on the Internet) is the only tech reporter I trust to answer that and the bigger question of whether AI is coming not only for our jobs, but our relationships, too (and just sexual ones). We talk about how AI platforms are designed to hook us emotionally, prompting us to outsource our inner lives, desires and if Bumble’s founder has her way, dating. Bridget's new audiobook is Love at First Prompt: AI and the Future of Intimacy, and spoiler alert, she's betting on HUMANS.
