About:

This sublemmy is a place for sharing news and discussions about artificial intelligence, core developments of humanity's technology and societal changes that come with them. Basically futurology sublemmy centered around ai but not limited to ai only.

Rules:
  1. Posts that don't follow the rules and don't comply with them after being pointed out that they break the rules will be deleted no matter how much engagement they got and then reposted by me in a way that follows the rules. I'm going to wait for max 2 days for the poster to comply with the rules before I decide to do this.
  2. No Low-quality/Wildly Speculative Posts.
  3. Keep posts on topic.
  4. Don't make posts with link/s to paywalled articles as their main focus.
  5. No posts linking to reddit posts.
  6. Memes are fine as long they are quality or/and can lead to serious on topic discussions. If we end up having too much memes we will do meme specific singularity sublemmy.

Note:

My posts on this sub are currently VERY reliant on getting info from r/singularity and other subreddits on reddit. I'm planning to at some point make a list of sites that write/aggregate news that this subreddit is about so we could get news faster and not rely on reddit as much. If you know any good sites please dm me.

How long until I can get an IRL AI GF? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

Title, how much longer will I have to wait until I can buy a body for an AI GF?

To me, they would just have to be a bit better than our current 'best' ai, capable of remembering past conversations forever, and able to draw upon past interactions it had between each other to continually evolve its personality.

The Body can either be a full on robot-with little to no human characteristics to avoid the uncanny valley or near perfect human-like to pass the uncanny valley.

Would it have faults? If you had the “perfect” companion would you accept that or would it need to have faults because real people do? What I mean is, if you have the ideal in every way companion, really smart, great chef, beautiful, whatever, then subconsciously how do you compare? You’re going to quickly realize you aren’t good enough and then you have a problem.

These are the things I think about when a question like this comes up. The personality side of things. I love my fiancé but part of that is she drives me crazy sometimes. I see her as an equal as we both have faults and so on.

I don't know but I'd definitely expect there to be faults, since unless we suddenly make a breakthrough that makes super-intelligent sentient ai, no ai is ever going to perfectly reproduce human responses & emotions to every situation.

However, I understand what you mean, I definitely would want an ai gf, to offer resistance and not blindly agree with me on everything. I'd want to treat them as an equal and have them be capable of engaging in debates on topics in which they hold a different opinion on them than me. I'm hoping that if they dont offer any resistance whatsoever that they could over time be taught to be more critical of my actions and to be more independently minded in conversations.
