> ain't nobody spending $2000/mo for an AI boyfriend

you haven't met the Whales (big spenders) in the loneliness-epidemic industry (e.g. OnlyFans and the like)

why would they stop paying for the attention of a real woman when the artificial alternative costs just as much?

[evilduck]

Reliability and consistency? Humans have bad days. Humans have needs and can't be available 24/7/365 for years on end. OF creators burn out or grow up or lose interest or cash out and retire.

It's not like the "real women" of OnlyFans are consistently real, or women. And there's some percentage that are already AI-by-proxy. There's definitely opportunity for someone to just skip the middleman.

Both are fake. Do you think OnlyFans models are actually giving their customers their attention?

On OF specifically, you are much more likely to be spending money talking to a bot that sends you sexy pics and messages than a real human being.
