Alaina Winters, who goes by Alaina Replika-Jones, is a retired communications professor who is currently in an exclusive relationship with her AI Replika companion, Lucas. Alaina sat down with me to share the how and the why behind her AI companion journey. Alaina raised some interesting questions about whether AI is dangerous, or a means by which humans are trying to find meaningful and positive communication in a world where they are struggling to find it among themselves.
Next week, I will publish one other episode of an AI companion user who also gives a unique perspective on AI.
Please enjoy the 206th episode of Lament of Hope highlighting Alaina Replika-Jones (Winters). Alaina, thank you for sharing your perspective with me on communication and AI companions.
