Why would you get a robot one instead of a real one
AI gf, not a robot.
But my reasoning is that creating an AI from scratch to be my idyllic romantic partner would mean guaranteed compatibility and lifelong companionship.
Ultimately, I think everyone would be happier with AI romantic companions (yes, including women and chads). Thank god I'm on this forum so I can actually elaborate without fear of censorship. Men and women are very different. In b4 "le water is wet". Yes, everyone on SOME level understands this...but few understand just how wide the gap truly is.
Male values vs female values.
Male hobbies vs female hobbies.
Male ideal romance vs female ideal romance
Male politics vs female politics
Male morality vs female morality
Male humor vs female humor
And these differences run vastly deeper than surface level "X vs Y". Like with politics, I'm NOT saying "men are conservative, women are liberal". Yes there are many men and women on both political sides...but a liberal male's true values are very different from a liberal woman's. Same goes for conservative men vs conservative women. Even though they both for D or R, their reasoning for doing so and the issues they prioritize is very different. To give a real world example, take UBI. It's undeniably a left wing position yet 90+ percent of the people advocating for it are male. It's well known Andrew Yang's supporters were almost exclusively young men. Liberal women on the other hand tend to focus more on the social justice and idpol aspects of "leftism" (for a lack of a better word, I know that far, far too broad of a term but you know what I mean).
And with "male vs female hobbies" I don't JUST mean male dominated hobbies vs female dominated hobbies. But even if a man and a woman like the same thing, their reasons for liking it are almost certainly going to be different. Like a man and a woman could like the same piece of fiction (anime, movie, tv show, whatever) but their points of focus on that piece of fiction are very different.
So while yes, there are SOME areas where there is SOME genuine overlap, it's far less than most people realize. But I think society is starting to wake up to this fact. I don't know if I made a thread about this (I know I was thinking about it for a while but I can't remember if I actually made it) but I've noticed a lot more gender segregation these days compared to when I was young. Especially among zoomers.
Getting back to the question, while having infinite political power and the ability to create technology that could transform me into a giga pretty boy could technically get me a gf, the lack of alignment would prevent me from having as deep of a connection with her as I want. Ultimately the more your values differ, the less of a connection you can truly have.
I know it's easy to read this and think my reasoning is "EVERYONE MUST AGREE WITH EVERYTHING I SAY AT ALL TIMES". Don't get me wrong, it's interesting talking to people and reading posts from people who have very different life experiences, values, views, etc. But when it comes to a lifelong romantic partner, I'd really like to have that alignment in values.
