Interesting vid on AI Companions by Georg Rockall-Schmidt

I've followed Georg for aages and I really like his view on things. It feels pretty real but also with research and less emotional outrage.

Anyway, the topic of the video is really interesting and definitely a modern problem that is slowly and quietly growing in the younger generations. I used Replika a little when it first came out, and Im really shocked in the direction the app once made out of grief for the lost has changed.

What are some of your guys' views on this topic?
