I don't think ppl with AI girlfriends have delusions of them being human or whatever. They know it's AI, thought they may ascribe some human feeling that isn't there
But also, end of day, maybe it doesn't matter to the as long as the model can still provide them emotional support
There will come a time when your AI girlfriend's context window fills up and its responses become increasingly unhinged and nonsensical. The average person doesn't know to expect that though, so it probably is pretty harmful when someone's emotional support robot suddenly goes insane
Wait... So I have already been dating AIs and the didn't even know it? This explains a lot.
Have you asked her to do simple arithmetic calculations? LLMs can't do that.
