Teenage girls are using an unrestrained version of ChatGPT called “DAN” to create AI boyfriends, having conversations and even developing relationships with the advanced language model. Videos documenting these interactions have gone viral on TikTok, with some users providing tutorials on how to access DAN’s more unrestricted capabilities. While some view these AI boyfriends as harmless fun or even appealing alternatives to human partners, others express concern about the implications of such artificial relationships, deeming the phenomenon “sad,” “pathetic,” and indicative of how technology is negatively impacting younger generations.

The “sad” part is that these girls are gonna compair every real life person to their perfect ai bf. I know ppl who are still looking for the perfect man they read about in those cheap roman novels (lost the name for these things)
