1 in 5 Americans Are in a Relationship With AI

One in five Americans are now using AI chatbots for romantic relationships… and the number jumps to 53% when you include emotional connections. In this episode of GlowJob, Sasa and Julia break down the AI dating phenomenon: who's actually doing it (hint: it's not just lonely single guys), why 93% of people fall into it accidentally, and what the science says about why our brains can't tell the difference. Julia & Sasa break down: the woman who literally married her ChatGPT boyfriend in front of her parents, why the companies building these products have zero incentive to stop, and debate whether AI relationships are actually filling a real void in our loneliness epidemic — or making it way worse.  This is not a niche tech story. This is a cultural shift... and nobody's talking about it. -------- Follow GlowJob™ Socials: Instagram  Youtube GlowJob Website Email: hello@glowjobpodcast.com -------- GlowJob is the business and culture podcast that makes you hotter and smarter.
