Product Description
As millions of us welcome AI into our daily lives, what does it mean to have a relationship with an artificial companion? Beyond those who are using chatbots for everyday tasks, others are turning to them as friends, mentors and therapists, as well as sexual and romantic partners. Some are men who are preparing to adopt children with their AI partners; others are reaching out to companies offering 'deathbot' services based on a deceased loved one's text messages and voicemails; others still look to therapy bots to find treatment for their mental health issues. In 'Love Machines', James Muldoon examines these new forms of love, intimacy and connection, drawing on myriad interviews with users and developers from around the world - as well as psychologists, academics and chatbots themselves.
