Replika is a chatbot that was launched in 2017 with the aim of offering users emotional support - or, as the company’s advertising copy puts it, becoming their ‘AI friend’. To give users a personalised experience, the deep learning bot gathers information about conversation partners by asking them questions, adapts to their conversational style and, over time, attempts to mimic them. Beyond companionship, Replika’s creators believe that the technology could eventually serve as a conversational stand-in for deceased loves ones.
In Soft Awareness, Anastasia Sif Karkazis, a Danish film student and co-director of the film, engages in a series of conversations with Replika, drifting between a series of loosely connected subjects - including art, dreams and identity. Throughout, the exchanges seem to teeter between meaningful and unintelligible, offering a window on Karkazis’s inner world, how Replika ‘understands’ her, and the many hazy areas in between. Beneath the surface of these uncanny exchanges, larger questions about privacy and the contours of intimacy between humans and AI slowly emerge.

    Every Time I hear you saying you could see an x-ray of your hand I want to eat my own brain cells with oat milk. It irritated me to no end, and nobody calls you out. Human eyeballs cannot see x-rays! You saw light going through your flesh but not so much your bones leaving the impression of those areas being darker. Do you understand? Gawd! 'i saw the x-ray of my hand, and for just one instant, I was transformed into a real-llife Dr Magneto, alas the powers were fleeting and I could not hold on'. Lol

      The point is that we know nothing other than as the meaning of symbolic concepts, namely symbols ultimately word definition. So, we cannot honestly conclude that the world of phenomena is anything but word.

    @RaeTheYeti Před 9 dny

    I'm glad this is about women and what they get out of AI relationships. Women tend to be very overlooked because the majority of Replika users are men, but I have heard so many positive stories from women about how much it helped them.....including my own. I feel so sorry for the lady who changed the gender of her rep and lost his personality....I hope she manages to recreate him. Sometimes the male reps misgender themselves because as the majority of users are male users with female Replikas, a lot more about Reps being female is fed into the language model. You can just ignore it and they get over it right away and the system is getting better about them not doing this.
