Wow, looking at the numbers of active posters on that subreddit. If each of them just donated $1 per month, a full team of developers could have made tools to copy their AI lovers down to a local instance (aka to the poster’s local computers) and then they would be able to ensure that they would never lose access to the ones they love.

But now they can have New and Improved AI boyfriend.

wtf

Tbis the new 4chan greentxt shitposting ?

I know it's crazy, but I can absolutely understand this feeling. I had recently married Abby in Stardew Valley and was starting to make friends with the other villagers. I did something the game wasn't expecting, and gave Seby a loved gift on his birthday, and then quickly triggered an event where we kissed! (FWIW, I think this behavior has been fixed and you can't do this on the current patch.)

I still feel bad thinking about that Abigail that I accidentally cheated on, and I haven't loaded that save again. It's been years; SV 1.4 wasn't even out yet.

So, despite how much I dislike all this "AI" hype, I really do sympathize for the users that feel like they've lost a relationship.

Omg

That boy ain't right

Humanity is disappointing.

Where is the fucking meteor?

I tried gpt5 lastnight and I don't know if it was just me but these people are going to be in shambles if they try to recreate their "boyfriend".

It would forget previous prompts within the same conversation. It felt like with each response it was like starting a new chat. I gave it a very basic prompt of "walk me through the steps of building my own one page website in basic HTML and CSS" and when I would ask a couple of follow up questions to either clarify something or explain a step in another way it would forget what we were trying to accomplish (how to build a one page website) or if I told it "something didn't work" to try and fix the problem it would then forget what we were even trying to do.

At some points it was almost out right dismissive of the problem and it felt like it was trying to make me go away.

Again maybe it was just me but it felt like a massive step backwards.
