AI Girlfriends – The Rise of AI Companions

The rate at which AI girlfriend websites and apps are becoming increasingly popular is concerning. Studies show that over 60% of men (ages 18-30) are single, compared to 30% of women of the same age. Experts have also argued that AI girlfriends lead to isolation and detachment from humans.

The rise of AI companions from simple chatbots in the early days is fascinating. These online friends have learned to adapt, speak, understand our moods, and offer emotional support. The first thing we should ask about AI girlfriends is, are they really a thing?

If you’re wondering what the appeal could be about AI girlfriends, then let me illustrate in detail the concept of AI girlfriends, its benefits, and the steady increase of having AI companions in today’s world.

The Revolution of Creating Deepfakes with AI

The world around us is changing, with technology right at the center, driving the change. One piece of tech that is currently making the rave is deepfakes. In 2019, a video that featured Mark Zuckerberg claiming he has complete control over the stolen data of billions of people started making rounds online. Likewise, another video of Morgan Freeman questioning reality. Although both videos turned out fake – AI deepfakes, it shows how far we’ve come.

What is Deepfake Technology?

Deepfake is a combination of two words – deep learning and fake. It is a fusion of artificial intelligence and machine learning and uses Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) architecture and AI Neural networks to reconstruct inputs from a simpler representation. In other words, two AI algorithms battle each other. One GAN creates a fake image, while the other tries to detect if the image is manipulated or not. They both repeat the process until the latter cannot differentiate between false and real information.

Deepfake technology uses images, audio clips, and videos to create fake videos, audio, or images that look real. As a result, they often feature individuals in situations that never happened. The technology can even create a replica of original content and make it realistic.

The Impact of the Pandemic on Pornography Consumption and its Future

Four years ago, the pandemic impacted human activities, and “suddenly” the physical mobility of most humans seemed to be reduced to the lowest point. But not with digital activities because there has been a massive increase in Internet access since the last pandemic. It will not recede soon, even though the global pandemic status has long been endemic. One of the digital activities that has increased in the last four years is anything related to pornography. But what is the essence of pornography, and what is its future?

It seems that the pandemic has changed people’s consumption of pornography. For example, according to a study by Netskope, one year after the pandemic ended, access to pornographic content globally increased by about 600 percent.

For most people, pornography is a necessity, and it is a kind of “drug” that can be bought and taken at any time. The problem is that, in most cases, it costs nothing. Many free porn sites provide free content, and it certainly costs nothing. Pornography is a necessity for some people, so they are even willing to pay to subscribe to a platform. Today, it is a multi-billion dollar industry that is “driven” by the Internet.

Pornography is not a drug, but…

Pornography is not a drug, but at some point, it can become addictive, and since most simple counseling can break this addiction, pornography is a part of “normal society.” For many, pornography is something that can be tolerated as long as it doesn’t involve children, sadism, and bondage.
