The True Cost of Your AI Girlfriend

from The Truth · host Media Network

AI boyfriends and girlfriends are all the rage – for some. For others, they just inspire rage. So what's the truth about these seductive machines? Do they open up our erotic potential, or are they just an absurd fantasy? And how are they even made? James Muldoon is the author of Love Machines: How Artificial Intelligence is Transforming Our Relationships and co-author of Feeding the Machine: The Hidden Human Labour Powering AI. Put these two books together, and his work takes us along the strange journey of AI from deeply exploited workers in the slums of East Africa to the cores of our deepest desires.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-truth--6487495/support.
