Those too, I agree. But there’s something unique about being able to voice out your inner fears, insecurities and anxieties with a companion and have them listen. They don’t even need to solution anything with you, necessarily. A lot of people, not just men, are lacking that when they’re lonely.

I hate that someone like OpenAI or Musk or Amazon are going to capitalize on this space in the worst possible ways. We need more empathy driven technology development, kinda like an actionable Hippocratic Oath for software dev

I agree with your point that tech companies are exploiting, and cornering a market of lonely people. However, the main solution to that is therapy. And assuming you're still speaking about the original concept, even though therapy should be free imo, some stupid metal husk is still more expensive. At this point, you're maybe not. AI still needs to stop. If not for the climates sake.
