I would say no, currently AI wouldn't be capable of holding my attention in the way a human would. Because I expect my relationships (no matter how artificial or distant they may be) to have depth. You know, I study the person, get to know their bio and vital statistics, their history, and I suppose AI could fabricate that kind of stuff, but it would all be fake. And there is a parallel there to actresses who play a character in a show, and so they too have an artificial persona, but there is still a human with a real personality and history behind that character, and most of my limerence with actresses is spent studying the real person and getting to know her biography, beyond the artifice of a character in a show. With an AI, there wouldn't be anything satisfying like that. I think that also limerence often carries the poorly-founded hope that there could be a consummation of the relationship, no matter the distance or insurmountable obstacles. With an AI I think it's a foregone conclusion that there wouldn't be any consummation. In fact it could be extremely bizarre, because an AI could in fact profess its love for someone and express desire to be close and a willingness to consummate that relationship! Now that is most unlike most parasocial interactions!
