As AI and sex robots integrate more into personal relationships, they evoke complex feelings around jealousy and intimacy. While technology provides emotional engagement and sexual satisfaction, some people might feel threatened by its presence, questioning their value in relationships. Men generally tolerate their partners' use of AI in intimate scenarios, favoring convenience. However, both genders report more dissatisfaction with sex toys compared to virtual interactions, suggesting a nuanced preference for human-like engagement over mechanical alternatives in sexual contexts.
The presence of AI in romantic contexts raises complex emotions, notably jealousy, as robots can fulfill emotional and sexual roles, reshaping dynamics in relationships.
Evolutionary psychology suggests men deal with jealousy from sexual infidelity, while women are more affected by emotional defection, indicating differing triggers in jealousy.
