Excited to announce v(1.0) of Digi, the future of AI Romantic Companionship, for IOS and Android 🤖Site: http://digi.aiTwitter: @digiaiapp A quick thread on features, and where we go from here (1/13)
The arcane puppetry at work here is designed to become an addiction not dissimilar to scrolling through social media to get a parasocial hit of dopamine. The capitalist is putting you in front of a slot machine with humanoid mannerisms. It may not seem like it on the surface but these addictions are a form of self harm.
Consider the people who spend everything on an onlyfans model and then stalk them. Consider the massive outcry that occurred when replika shut down. These services aren't being used as stepping stones to a better life. They're whirlpools that suck you in and chew up your bones so that their creators can live in comforts you can't afford.
The only stepping stone to real love and not this mechanical perversion of love is to learn to love yourself, then others, then humanity. If you trust a robot's love then it's too late. You've already caved to the ideology of a dead world.
