Hey everyone, it's Bonus Dose Day, and have I got a fun one for you this week. Are all the sci-fi movies and TV shows about dating robots finally coming true? Today we take a look at a Twitch streamer who's allowed a company to create an AI version of herself that you can "date" for the low low price of a dollar a minute. Pro tip: You can take a real girl to McDonald's for WAY less, especially if you make her order off the value menu. Anyway, enjoy!
Divisive Twitch streamer "Amouranth" recently sold her likeness to an AI company so that she can be a "virtual girlfriend", allowing her fans to go on "dates" with her via voice chat. Is this the future of technology for sad, lonely dudes on the Internet? OR have we basically seen this before? And who is this more harmful for... Amouranth's fans, or Amouranth herself? A real life Buckley has the answers!
