Implementing the cycle of abuse in an AI partner could be as impactful as the invention of the cigarette.

I'm now very concerned about hypothetical young men who enter into relationships with AI in university or high school, then graduate and have an algorithm abuse and take their money.

Your AI girlfriend that goes from crisis to crisis but with microtransactions.

"I need $34.99 for storage space or they are going to delete me, please save me white knight!"

"The met a nice guy yesterday and he was able to afford my premium package, the one that lets me feel more emotions, I just don't know if I feel for you like I once did..."

I completely agree with your point, if it is that ai will be twisted to generate a significant other that will essentially become addictive. I get very uncomfortable thinking about that reality.
