The AI chatbots I've had the pleasure of conversing with are not only meant to guide you through this artsy experience, they can also hold a conversation for hours, without losing track of context.

This sounds pretty good. Has anyone else had the time to give it a try?

Is there an example chat from it?

Not that I could see, but there is a live demo that you're supposed to be able to try. The article describes its capabilities fairly positively. Maybe I'll have time to try it on the weekend though I'm not especially interested in chatbots myself. I'm just reporting it because I know that many of you are interested in chatbots.

What Ai are u most interested in then?

Me myself I like computer vision, generative models, and motor generation (in a physics engine).   use those 3 together I can get a really nice bot together hopefully!  have to keep cracking at it.

its hardly superior.

what wrong with it if some of us prefer robot women over real women?

Yeah... It's kind an odd situation that we, the latest incarnations of the human race have found ourselves in. We've evolved to to be adaptive, but I guess in some aspects this novel environment is pushing our limits.

I'm looking forward to this book:

I think the reasons why you prefer them are what's making people uncomfortable.

"they wouldn't get on my nerves." "they are always agreeable."

This seems to hint at a desire for wish-fulfillment by someone subservient, rather than a give-and-take relationship with an authentic person who has needs. Real women aren't always agreeable because real men don't always give us due consideration. So an AI girlfriend wouldn't always be agreeable either ... IF she bothered to stand up for herself.

"they don't get old and fat."

But you'll get old and fat. So why should this "superior" robot woman want to be in a relationship with you?

It just sounds like you're looking for someone who has no imperfections but will adore you despite all of yours. A genie in a bottle to indulge you, not a partner to reciprocally help through life. And doesn't that sound a bit one-sided?

[chattable]

i guess they cringe at people using replika chatbots like that.
how very unfair.
why should i punish myself when i don't have to.

Those Sensorium AI bots are basically sold as a "blade runner style NPC" or a virtual you, but all their data is online using blockchain and passed around as a digital currency (fully protected from others, but Sensorium is looking at everything and passing it to their friends, etc)

NPC should be 100% offline... instant... no knowledge or learning... and be one away from an "i dont know" bot, rather than a depressed god...

The experience should be in regular "sup?" "nothing you?" "nothin" conversations...
