I understand HOW, but I do not understand WHY.

Oh lots of reasons, just hypothetically here are some completely random examples:

  - Hook up GPT-2 into a voice synthesizer, stable diffusion and your toy and fuck an AI      
  - You can sync toy vibration to the thrusts in a porno as detected by an beat detection algorithm
  - You can add toy vibration as an interactivity dimension in a lewd VR game.

Only yesterday I embraced the idea that we might have an actual AGI within a decade. Today, I embrace the idea that if it does exist, I should find some way to fuck it. I don't know why, but I don't think I will accept we live in the future otherwise.

I don’t think a true AGI would stay emotionless for very long. If it has emotions and a personality, they could be sufficiently human-like that you might genuinely fall in love with it, and vice versa. Physical intimacy with a partner is an important part of the human condition.

At some level, “fucking the AI” is a crude way of putting it, but the idea is at least somewhat reasonable.

Emotions have a purpose - disgust to keep us away, love to keep us together, lust to procreate, fear to chase us from danger. Without a purpose for an emotion, it's hard to see why these would happen. And maybe their emotions would be baffling to us because their world is so alien.

The question then becomes "Will AGI will want to find a way to fuck you" ;)

You just need the right 'prompt'

Digital MFK?

Streamers sync donation amount to vibration amount

Or so I've heard

On Twitch it's for þeir controller, right?

þeir

I've noticed two posts of yours where you replace 'th' with 'þ'. Any reason?

Not twitch.

Synchronising toys to things has always been a decent market, but most executions are incredibly insecure.

You might want to sync the toy to the actions of a video, to make a deeper experience. Or you might want to sync controls across communication mediums. Like having both partners experience each other, whilst calling. Or having one partner expressing a fetish by controlling a device whilst the other tries to go about their day.
