AI fakes, and AI in general, will push more and more people to interact with each other in real life. I, for one, can't wait for that. Sometimes, the more things change, the more they stay the same

I don't know that this is true. A lot of people are getting sucked into "this is my AI friend/girlfriend/boyfriend/waifu/husbando" territory.

In real life, other humans are not machines you can put kindness tokens in and get sex out. AI, on the other hand, you can put any tokens at all into AI and get sex out. I'm worried that people will stop interacting with humans because it's harder.

Sure, the results from a human relationship are 10,000x higher quality, but they require you to be able to communicate. AI will do what it's told, and you can tell it to love you and it will.

for some values of "will".

That problem will naturally sort itself out through the magic of evolution: generic and cultural traits that increase the chance of pairing with AI will be bred out (as such people won't have children), and traits that reduce it will be selected for.

Sounds like a plan for a healthy social order

Implying that this is all somehow a genetic trait?

Which gene do you think encodes for having the hots for AI models?

You remind me to a reporting I saw on Taiwanese schoolchildrens' career goals. Most reported aiming for the semiconductor industry. Crazy how the local gene pool works, what a coincidence.

Possibly, at the time horizon of 100s of thousands of years.

What about us mortals that want to deal with the problem in our lifetimes?
