Yeah. Saw that one coming.
Isn't this what every app on your phone is already doing? Why would "AI Girlfriend App" be any better than Facebook or Google?
It's even more insidious because these apps ask for the data upfront under the guise of "getting to know you better"
How can your AI girlfriend truly love you back unless you give it your real name, age, photos of your face, mother's maiden name, social security number, and genetic material? /s
lol it’s not. That’s the point. It’s all the same sort of companies putting these fucking things out. Google and Facebook are both working on their own AI. It’s been shown over and over how they’re scraping all available data—public or private when available—so why the fuck would a newer tech company be any different? It’s the state of capitalism. The markets are focusing more on hyper focused data, so that’s what any profitable tech company is doing. Invading your fucking privacy.
That’s why it’s not a surprise. Because Facebook and google helped set the trend and determine the current tech market. And that’s the world these new “AI girlfriends” are existing in.
Idk all my apps are open source and most don't connect to internet except ones that need it like eternity for reddit
