I might as well be a Christian fundamentalist when it comes to porn. Its irredeemable. I have no hangups about sex. Sex is not bad. Porn is not sex. It’s disturbing to think about a future where porn becomes more immersive and engaging.

Isn't immersive porn in the extreme limit just .. sex? Highly available and accessible sex. That already exists in a lot of ways.

  The idea is that this lowers the price of sex, by a lot. And not just in money. Which is of course exactly the problem a lot of people have with it.

With the internet polarization,individualization and atomization kept getting stronger, I'd expect more and more individuals will retreat from intrapersonal offline communication including romantic relationships and drown themselves in AI

  I think so too. Its already been trending this way. An easy and old example is anxiety young generations feel about calling vs texting. I don’t think demand for removing people dependencies are satisfied.

    I'm a bit sad of myself that I am much more comfortable in written communication than speech communication.

> disturbing to think about Why, exactly? Every time somebody tries to defend that position it either becomes a circular argument (x is bad because it leads to more x!) or a non-sequitir (there was once a guy who did x and he became a mass murderer!). It doesn't destroy your lungs and kill you like smoking does or cause you to crash your car and kill other people like drinking does - in the worst case, it just turns you into a recluse which I believe is exactly what women _want_ of the unwanted men who find refuge in it. They certainly don't want those men trying to talk to them.
