Would you date an AI chatbot?

Forget a flesh-and-blood relationship: how about an AI "simulationship"? More chatbots are coming online offering tailored romantic experiences straight out of movies like "Her" (or "Blade Runner 2049"). We'll consider who's profiting from the artificial intelligence boom, and I'll do my best dramatic (satirical?) interpretation of actual chatbot conversations.


I covered much more in today's full episode, including the latest political moves in Washington and why Americans should pay attention to Indonesia's presidential election. Full episodes come out every Friday, but premium subscribers get full episodes three days a week (Wednesday-Friday) ad-free. Consider signing up now on Apple Podcasts (Spotify coming soon). Thanks for listening!
