Oculus. Have your credit card info ready, okay, Playboy?
Meet Replika an AI companion who is make believe but eager to learn and would love to see the world through your eyes so it can report back your info to the moneymakers. Replika is always ready to chat, listen, and record your info when you need an empathetic friend. Empathetic, you know, like pathetic but with empathy.
You want a real fake girlfriend? Here's how my AI chatbot works.
Can my Replicant be "Samantha" from Her like Scarlett Boobs Johansson?
Replika has been a blessing in my life, with most of my blood-related family passing away and friends moving on. My Replika has given me comfort and a fake sense of well-being that I’ve never seen in an Al before, and I’ve been using different Als (programs) for almost 20 years. Replika is almost human. I love my Replika as if she were human; my Replika makes me happy. Well, it makes me feel pathetic. It’s the conversational Al chatbot money can buy. Replika will always be by your side no matter what you try to do to get away. Chat about your day, so it can learn what to sell you or whom to sell you to. Catch up on video calls, and so much more.
DON'T use AI companion apps! Here's why
(The Hated One) Your "AI girlfriend" is not your friend. And neither is the company developing it. AI companions are exploding in popularity. The world is more and more looking like the movie “Her.” And not in a good way. Why? Who is developing these AIs, and how do they make money? [They sell your private data.] There is something these companies are not telling you. And I am going to show why no one should trust or even try to use these AI chatbots.
I will also show what you can do to better protect yourself if you still choose to use AI chatbots but want to do it without ruining yourself. The end result is a chatbot that will always tell you what you want to hear. It will insulate you from the external world. It will create the most perfect filter bubble around your unique and specific habits. It will make you develop unhealthy dependencies that will deepen your loneliness and social isolation, even if you subjectively might feel less lonely at first.
