Tech exec predicts ‘AI girlfriends’ will create $1B business: ‘Comfort at the end of the day’
NY Post
It’s only a matter of time before someone builds the next billion-dollar dating app that will pair real-life users with artificial intelligence-created girlfriends, according to a tech executive.
Greg Isenberg, CEO of Late Checkout, wrote a blog post on X in which he shared that he met a man in Miami who “admitted to me that he spends $10,000/month” on “AI girlfriends.”
“I thought he was kidding,” Isenberg wrote. “But, he’s a 24 year old single guy who loves it.”
When Isenberg asked him what he loved about it, the Miami man is quoted as saying: “Some people play video games, I play with AI girlfriends.”
Isenberg said that he was told by the man: “I love that I could use voice notes now with my AI girlfriends.”
“I get to customize my AI girlfriend,” the man told Isenberg. “Likes, dislikes etc. It’s comfort at the end of the day.”
