This is the one thing missing from my interactions with AI. If successful, this will change everything. If you thought people were getting AI boyfriends and girlfriends before, wait until you see this.

One important thing missing from AI boyfriends is they aren't capable of paying half your rent.

Na, we'll get micro cube houses first with shared bathrooms/kitchens and everyone will just be in their room with their VR helmet on not reacting with anyone else real.

I think it's interesting that people associate being in VR with being unable to interact with other people. I personally think it promotes living with other people because it reduces conflict.

Like, if you and your kids want to watch different movies on the living room TV then you can just give it to them and use XR glasses for yourself.

Fighting with your kids is not the appropriate kind of interaction to have with your kids.

As an adult you have the luxury of not living in a false dichotomy where the only two options are VR or fighting.

As a parent you have the responsibility of spending time with the kids when they're young. You can watch your shows later.

Reducing conflict to zero is not a goal we should pursue.

Ever tried sleeping in bed while someone next to you is on their phone? It's not the kind of conflict you should promote. XR glasses are better in that case because the glare doesn't affect other people.

we usually both agree it's time to go to bed and put phones away

but either way, giving up our humanity to browse longer without disturbing others is not exactly a wonderful trade

If it's AGI they could just get a regular job, I think.
