In this article, the CEO of an AI companion company, Eugenia Kuyda, discusses the role of AI in dating and relationships. Kuyda acknowledges that there is often a stigma surrounding using AI chatbots for companionship, but argues that these relationships can have positive impacts and help individuals feel better over time.
