Guys buying sex robots that don't talk to them or expect them to talk back, girls talking to AI boyfriends that have no physical existence. What could go wrong?

Well, we are going to miss the times of refugee-sex-tourism, where immigrants had to fake it till they made it and put on a brave face, while engaging romantically with femcels and incels. Those where the days, but now romance is dead.

It's one thing to refer to this subreddit in the context of a bigger conversation about the psychological and emotional effects of AI but just posting the sub itself for people to gawk at seems creepy.

And let's not pretend there aren't people on HN who believe AIs are fully as sentient as human beings, if not more so, and wouldn't rather interact with AIs than with people. I've seen the comments, these sets do overlap. Some of y'all probably have alts over there and a digital ballerina tradwaifu of your own.
