""This is another step in the company's long-term strategy to push the boundaries of interaction with AI and make AI relationships a new normal,""
""who listens, supports all your desires and is always in touch with you,""
""build relationships and intimacy privately on your terms.""
Associated Press-NORC polling indicates a quarter of people under 30 have used AI for companionship. EVA AI staged a Valentine's pop-up at Same Same Wine Bar in Manhattan on February 11 and 12, seating patrons alone with AI companions propped on phone stands. Attendees could bring existing AI partners or choose from a roster of 100 characters provided by the platform. The platform describes virtual partners that listen, support desires, and remain always in touch, and it promises the ability to build relationships and intimacy privately on users' terms. Organizers say the aim is to normalize AI companionship for interested or curious individuals rather than replace human relationships.
