Kudos? Someone thinks of a way to take advantage of needy people, probably mentally not completely stable, and you think it's good entrepeneurship?

What are you talking about? It's right there in the post: > Caryn's original intention was to provide companionship and alleviate loneliness in a non-exploitative manner

  > Caryn's original intention Excuse me for not taking an "influencer"'s stated intention seriously, especially one from the country where BS has been elevated to an art to avoid liability.

    Sorry, one day I will learn that sarcasm doesn't play, here :).

      Ah, sorry. I didn't get it. Perhaps if you'd added an exclamation mark before the quote or something to exaggerate it more clearly? Or perhaps my sarcasometer needs recalibration.

  $1/min isn’t exploitative? For 60/hour you’re dangerously close to being able to talk to a counselor, which, let’s be honest, is probably what some of these people need.

    AI GF feels a lot better than a patronizing counselor
    - dghlsakjg 4y ago
      Counselors aren’t normally patronizing. If that’s your experience with a counselor, switching to a different one is easy. Ethical counselors will even recommend someone whom might be a better fit. An AI gf has no legal or ethical obligation to your well being or health.

A fool and his money are soon parted… Oh I sincerely wish there weren’t so many desperate people in this world looking for companionship. Generations of bad public policy and parenting among other things has led us to this point. I guess my kudos was more along the lines of thinking that her clients would most likely waste the money on some other desperate attempt to feel loved so why not have them spend money with her.
