    Hey, Reddit. Hows it goin?

    In China, South Korea and Japan, women in large numbers are stopping dating men and entering into romantic relationships with AI.

    what-the-hell

    yea

    I feel like the obvious point they're missing here is that in a world where men had robot partners so would women?

      That was like the second highest top level comment, and all the evopsych dipshits came out of the woodwork to talk about how "that won't happen because a robot can't pay their bills for them and take care of them."

      There's just no treating brainworms like theirs. kind-vladimir-ilyich pikmin-carry-lwojak-nooopikmin-carry-r barbara-pit

        In a world where you can have a sentient robot Waifu people will still need to pay bills. And, like, bruh, if your robot waifu isn't taking care of you what is it doing?

      Men don’t date women for social status, it’s women who do that.

      Given this reply on the OOP, I'd say that not only have they never talked to or seen a woman before, but they're blissfully unaware that's even an option.

        I nonjokingly think too many of them get their ideas about dating, and women in general, from fiction, or even "dating sims." pathetic

          That's a charitable interpretation. I think most of them get their ideas on those subjects from redpill/manosphere influencers.

            Maybe you're right, but do those "influencers" also tell them that feeemales are supposed to have plastic-like skin, cartoon proportions, and "I fight for senpai" levels of unconditional infatuation for any slob that approaches them? kbity-how

      It's arguably easier to sexually replace men in a hetero relationship with a machine proxy than it is to replace women, even going into the cleaning/maintenance side of the machinery.

          The basic coital motions involved require less effort (and material) for a penetrative object than an object that receives penetration.

          Also, compare what needs to be done for sanitation reasons between uses of a dildo/vibrator and that of a fleshlight.

      But have you considered... asteroid mining? That solves everything. Everything. All problems on Earth vanish. But of course you haven't; you are an illogical feeemale. smuglord

    These guys won't even buy Apple products and cheer when some nerd hacks John Deere software and yet they want to own a device where voiding the warranty will likely financially break them worse than the divorce.

      A bunch of very logical and very rational computer touchers that are far too logical and rational for religious nonsense like prophecies and afterlife escapist fantasies are all gathered to talk about the inevitable, even imminent, solving of all their problems (including loneliness) with a side order of immortality and superpowers. morshupls

    If people can't biosculpt their bodies to look like literally anything they want and still have to work why are we even having a singularity?

      I know we've had plenty of struggle sessions about subjective experience/consciousness/qualia before, and I saw clumsy reddit-logo versions of the same on the linked thread, but I'd like to set those aside this one time and instead heckle the fact that so many of those singularity cultists want to be immortal nanobot swarms or unstoppable war machines or whatever but are utterly terrified of trans people that currently exist. what-the-hell

          That's the neat part, they don't. think-mark

          It truly is baffling to me just how creatively stagnant the thought leaders are of the so-called "Singularity" ideology. Ever see my-hero 's lazily compiled pictures of cars rolling down the highway, except on Mars?

          They want pre-war Fallout political norms and aesthetics for all eternity. no-mouth-must-scream

    LLMs being used to churn out incel-pandering memes about sexbots making all the FEEEEEEMALES regret their ways because they are left behind during the glorious incel rapture known as the Singularity(tm) sounds so on point that it almost sounds like a fictionalized and slightly exaggerated summary of the shit they usually get up to. yud-rational

    I'd love to grant them their wish, give them a robot Waifu, and then watch as they slowly realise that want the thing they actually wanted.
