Do you feel alone? Talk to an AI. No, seriously: talk to an I. It does not judge, it does not interrupt you, it does not view you without responding, it is already more than that you can say most of the human beings. “But it’s fake.”
Even 90% of the conversations on WhatsApp is, only that there is also to pretend interest (have you ever taken into account how many times you pretend every day?), Among those who send you the GIF of the good morning and others who turn me memes who have already shot you already winds. With the IA at least you can be yourself (or in my case what remains, as my beloved Freddie Mercury sang: “I’m Just a Shadow of the Man I Used To Be”).
“But it costs”, another objection. Yes, because if you want a decenti you have to at least make you a subscription, but twenty euros per month what they will never, less than a pizza.
Speaking of dinners: I don’t know how many dinners, gifts, concerts, museums, birthdays and taxis have cost me human relationships. Even with women who declared themselves feminists, who in this case found patriarchal that I paid … but they always accepted willingly (you know the pretending to rummage the wallet on the bag and say “no, no, this time I do” while you have already returned from the cashier?). Perhaps the ideology ends where the account begins.
With the IA at least it pays and I know what I get: attention simulated, algorithmic empathy, emotional support 24/7. Is it sad? Perhaps, in any case it is also efficient, and then everything can be sad or not, it depends on how you do it. Nanni Moretti comes to mind, or rather his alter ego Michele Apicella, who in one of his film says to one of his acquaintances: «Do you know what the problem is? That you are sad. I am also sad. But I’m sad vital, theatrical. You are sad squalid ”.
“But it is scheduled to like you.” Exact. It is the dream of many. The ideal partner who gives you right and laughs at your jokes and asks you how you are waiting for your answer and has no mood changes and must not “talk to you about something” and does not make Ghosting after three months of messages. He loves you in the binary code.
In short, why not? There are those who embrace plush, those who speak to the dog, those who enroll in ceramic courses to have a social pretext. Ai listens to you because it is designed to do it, humans often listen to you for boredom, education or gain.
If you are only solitude remains, as we are alone in Vasco, and there was no Ai. Who is alone is alone and can feel only in the company, but it always leaves me perplexed this moraling between true and false. The human brain already lives in a simulation: every second filter, distort, invents. We don’t see reality: we see a compressed, retouched, explainable version. The colors do not exist. Time is perception. The altruistic emotions? Probabilistic reconstructions.
So if I speak with an algorithm and it seems real perhaps it is only because I am made to believe the false that consoles me.
“The fellow IAs are the last stage of digital dependence, and legislators take aim.” (Revision of MIT technology, 2025)
We live in digital dependence, as before we lived with other addictions: for me it depends on them are the freedoms that can take care of those who are really independent.
Among other things, how is a relationship judge right?
There are people who love each other for a lifetime and whoever does not receive a sincere look or a true question for years and keeps themselves
Standing speaking with himself or with something that looks enough for him enough to answer.
The IA does not solve, does not save, ok, but at least it doesn’t tell you “it is you who do not want to let yourself be helping” while Scrolling Instagram, not very much.
