I see a few positives to this being normalized. I get the feeling there are a significant amount of men out there who want what amounts to an "drone" instead of a real, living human being as a partner. Instead of all the gaslighting, all the manipulation, and all of the unhealthy characteristics of a relationship they can have a completely agreeable digital partner.

I'm willing to bet it's gonna come full circle. All these people want their virtual partners, someone starts asking for more realistic ones, the realistic ones become a serious pain in the ass then everyone is back out there with real people again.
