Anthropic President Daniela Amodei Calls AI Girlfriends A "Terrible Use Of AI"

"There are some applications of AI that we think are quite bad, like making AI girlfriends or boyfriends. I think that’s a terrible use of AI and people should not do it " " The reason that I think that is because it is another step further down the road of disintermediation, of humans being further from one another " "Technology in the social media age has largely been used to disintermediate humans from one another. Instead of you and I going to have an iced coffee together in person, we’re messaging on Snapchat or Instagram" " A much better world of AI is one in which artificial intelligence is doing a lot of the things that are isolating or lonely activities for humans, so that we can spend more time together " https://x.com/jaynitx/status/2115429414821560352 I agree with her. I find that Claude has the personality of a Philosopher/Spiritual Guru. Someone you go to for life advice and wisdom. On the other hand, chatgpt models, grok, etc are a lot more flirty and suitable for chit chat.
