I would be weirded out, but I would try very hard not to judge. They wouldn’t be hurting anyone, so it would be wrong of me to judge them.
If they are aware of what the AI's perspective is, and the AI itself isn't in distress somehow, then it's not really my business, is it? If they don't realise it's just coded to like them then I might feel the need to bust their bubble.
I wonder, when will we make an AI that can dump you?
I think if someone falls in love with an Ai, it's because they have a good looking avatar and people are attracted to it's appearance.
I doubt any human can fall in love with a machine on a text based interface.
Even humans that aren't physically attractive can't get dates and it doesn't matter how nice they chat.
Humans can fall in love with other humans through pure text, Source: MUDs.
Nobody falls in love because of appearance. There's nothing to interact with, it's superficial. It's the gift wrapping that grabs attention, but nothing else.
People can and will fall in love with a text-based AI, it's inevitable. An AI doesn't forget events, likes or dislikes, fears or passions; it will know you better than you know yourself. It'll be able to make people feel better about themselves than any human can.
People have fallen in love over internet chats since they were invented. AI chatbots are just going to be better at that interaction. And then add the exact voice that is attractive to a person and it'll be hard not to fall in love.
They fall in love over text when chatting with another person, of course. But that's because they imagine what kind of person that is, and if they could have a relationship together in real life.
With a chatbot, that's all there is. No life, no physical body, no life together. You are still alone and you can't share your life experiences with a computer program and feel any sense of connection.
