Can AI Boyfriends Fulfill Secret Fantasies?

In Sleepless in Seattle, Annie falls for a man she's never met, drawn in by the fantasy of who he might be. But what happens when that fantasy isn't just in your head... and it's talking back to you? In this week's bonus episode, DB dives into the rise of AI relationships, the loneliness driving people to seek them out, and the ethical questions around forming attachments to something that isn't human.
