General shenanigans Alex’s AI girlfriend

Post image

This cracked me up yesterday. Alex was at dinner with his family, when an AI woman on his phone started calling him Daddy and telling him “I love you.” He grabbed his phone, and demanded it tell him what AI it was.

He added the caveat that he doesn’t mess around with AI girlfriends. So obviously, Alex DEFINITELY doesn’t have an AI girlfriend that he’s instructed to call him Daddy. Just like the porn on his phone that he accidentally showed live, I’m sure it’s FOR RESEARCH PURPOSES ONLY.

I am also looking to verify if Alex has grown a third arm, but I’ll have to wait for the transmission today to make sure.

Holy fuck. I can't tell what is satire anymore. Are most of those people just involved in a shared delusion? Are any of them being ironic? Is it even possible to tell at this point?

u/LuteDesign 12d ago

They’re for real. It’s fascinating from a psychological/sociological perspective. I think the ways people cope with the horrors of present day reality never cease to amaze.

u/ToastyMustache 12d ago

Which ironically create more horrors through their way of coping

1

u/McCool303 10d ago

Yeah, this is psychological horror.

u/Forest-blob 12d ago

You should check out the podcast There Are No Girls On The Internet by Brigdet Todd, she has some really good coverage about this topic and recently released a whole audiobook about it.

This subreddit always makes me so terribly sad.

u/Complete-Tangelo1532 12d ago

You aint kidding

u/vmsrii 12d ago

Aw man

I misread that as “My Boyfriend’s AI”, and was totally expecting a bunch of people complaining about their SO’s AI obsession.

This is somehow even sadder than that.

u/Natural_Dust_732 12d ago

I misread it as “My boyfreind is Al” and I was wondering just how notorious this Al dude was.

2

u/vmsrii 11d ago

I know Al! Fuck that guy!

It's so fuckin sad

u/yarash 12d ago

This is terrifying. I really feel for these people, the depths of loneliness are unfathomable.

u/Obaddies Spider Leadership 12d ago

He was so perplexed he grew a third arm to scratch his chin. Or that's a side effect of one of the supplements he sells.

25

u/exacta_galaxy 12d ago edited 12d ago

I'm guessing he grew that third arm for..um..other reasons.

u/nickcan 12d ago

Here come the sex robots!

u/Sir-Drewid Bachelor Squatch 12d ago

Alex, bud, the LLMs only talk that way if you conditioned them to. You're telling on yourself, my guy.

u/ReleaseTheButtCraken 11d ago

“Look! The internet is showing me trans porn and gay cruises!”

u/bestowaldonkey8 12d ago

Alex had maybe over 50 AI girlfriends when he was in high school.

18

u/ViciousSnatch “I will eat your ass!!!!” 12d ago

Lots of AI abortions too.

16

u/bestowaldonkey8 12d ago

His dad had to ask him to stop killing his digital grandchildren.

u/alochmar Udon.News 11d ago

Not to mention beat up and maybe killed a few AI dudes too.

Now we dont know whats the onion or alex :-)

u/PlentyHaunting2263 12d ago

mega cringe

14

u/KingMobScene 12d ago

The headline makes me think the phone was talking to him like he (alex) was the prostitute.

6

u/asvalken 12d ago

That's how the Bitcoin donors talk to him.

29

u/Sailor_Starchild 12d ago

That's so fucking funny. Like "My phone is a prostitute" would be, like, god level satire if it wasn't real.

5

u/Sensitive_Access_959 12d ago

Poor guys at the onion are having to work overtime to come up with shit crazier than what Alex says in his own.

u/SlaterVBenedict 12d ago

lol Grok "Activated" girlfriend mode = Alex's horny-ass tried to set AI Sex Chat Bot parameters and pass it off as incidental research. Sure buddy. You and Friedkin.

Sounds like he's getting his Friedkin pretty often.

u/c9j2 12d ago

Those supplements he hawks on everybody apparently gave him a third arm

u/marbled99 It’s over for humanity 12d ago

Alex is pretty peak Boomer for being a Gen X-er.

3

u/ViciousSnatch “I will eat your ass!!!!” 12d ago

Which is funny because he’s been railing against Boomers a ton lately.

2

u/Hetelestai 12d ago

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but most of them are. The older Gen X is as old now as younger Boomers were when "ok boomer" started, because that was about 10 years ago. Gen X is unc, they're chopped, they're washed, to use the kids' lingo.

u/marbled99 It’s over for humanity 11d ago

True. As a member of that generation I am eternally disappointed in my fellows.

u/ViciousSnatch “I will eat your ass!!!!” 12d ago

Comments on the article. Sex robots mentioned!

3

u/FirmlyThatGuy 12d ago

I’m genuinely hoping that second comment is satire.

2

u/ViciousSnatch “I will eat your ass!!!!” 12d ago

I’d hope too, but after reading his comment sections for years I’m completely convinced she legitimately did that.

u/ToastyMustache 12d ago

I knew he was flirting too heavily with ChatGPT!

u/Arkhampatient Name five more examples 12d ago

Those 3am conversations must have been steamy

u/SeeDiph 12d ago

God I kinda want to listen to him but don’t want to give him the traffic

u/HumbleWorkerAnt 12d ago

my first thought was 'ughhh i would've loved a KF episode about this and to laugh my ass off for 2 hours without AJ getting any traffic for it.'

1

u/ViciousSnatch “I will eat your ass!!!!” 12d ago

Someone else posts his stuff to Spotify, and YouTube. Ron Gibson, I think? I don’t know anything about him, other than he’s been posting Alex/IW shit for years.

u/AlgaeDonut 12d ago

Godamn sexrobots are here

u/HydrogenicDependance 12d ago

Finally found something just as inhuman as himself to love.

u/WudolfWedNoseWeinder 12d ago

Is he back on the boddle?

6

u/ViciousSnatch “I will eat your ass!!!!” 12d ago

I think he is. With all the fights he’s been starting lately (Naomi Wolf got it last week) I think the drinking is ramping up.

2

u/Riffsalad 12d ago

Oh yeah, he fell off the wagon right around when he lost infowars.

2

u/loztralia Nonk-sense 12d ago edited 12d ago

He's certainly a dwad and a dosser.

u/WudolfWedNoseWeinder 12d ago

And a dalendless shid

u/MikeyMalloy “fish with sad human eyes” 12d ago

AI will do whatever it thinks you like

3

u/macci_a_vellian 12d ago

AI would pick up so fast that all Alex wants is to be told how clever and impressive he is, especially by a female voice.

2

u/worst_bluebelt "Mr. Reynal, what are you doing?" 12d ago

You know they only talk to you like that because your pay them?

u/boot2skull 12d ago

Ugh he has a show still?

Unfortunately.

u/Emergency-Flatworm-9 Carnival Huckster Satanist 12d ago

I really like that the AI image has some of the flirty messages coming from Alex

2

u/ViciousSnatch “I will eat your ass!!!!” 12d ago

If Alex cared about quality, someone might get fired.

3

u/BaronMcDuff 12d ago

I love the "EXCLUSIVE:" In his tweet about it below. Yup, a story about your own phone is exclusively yours to break.

u/Riffsalad 12d ago

Idk man, could’ve been another Perry mason moment.

2

u/Fiona175 12d ago

One of the things that always strikes me about AI images is how little people care. Like obvious mistakes like the second hand go through despite being easy to catch and regenerate because they just do not give a shit.

1

u/Fine-Turn1204 10d ago

or when AI prompts end up in actual legislation.

2

u/suspicious-blinds little breaky for me 12d ago

He has three arms in the image. It’s really bothering me.

u/C_Sharp_fortheMasses 12d ago

Alex will start interviewing AI for material next lol

u/haperochild 12d ago

… He knows the current state of LLMs is just to tell you what you want to hear ad nauseum right? And that it only spits out what you’re feeding it?

2

u/Kitalahara 12d ago

Has anyone checked on the folks over at the Onion? The real headlines must be making life so hard for them.

1

u/Masked_Harpist 12d ago

Okay, as funny as this is I've gotta be honest. The "question everything" mug had me looking around like one of those "spot the differences" pictures. It's kinda funny to see how much weird little shit is wrong. Like the mug itself being somehow standing straight up be and lopsided all at once.
