Do you actually think gooning is such a intense thing that people are going to personify AI more than what they do already everyday with Gemini and ChatGPT?
After all those people with chatgpt boyfriends, I think maybe yeah? any long term roleplay chat is going to tend towards that.
That is a separate, very niche, issue tho. Character.ai and most similar products aren't made for long term relationships, rather short term fun. Like one time throwaway experiences.
