In the 14th issue of World Expo 2019, there is a point that scholars who study the history of robots have discovered that the automata that humans have been searching for for thousands of years have three basic uses: labor, sex and entertainment.
The reason why humans study robots and artificial intelligence is for large-scale production labor, the satisfaction of sexual needs, and a richer entertainment life.
With the development of artificial intelligence, sweeping robots have gradually replaced cleaners, driverless express vehicles have gradually replaced express brothers, and intelligent assembly lines have gradually replaced factory workers... This is large-scale production labor.
As for the rich entertainment life, it is even more obvious that the emergence of chatGPT has broken through human cognition of artificial intelligence. Various AIs are gradually integrated into people's lives, allowing people to enjoy certain fun.
Of course, people only do not understand one aspect, can the so-called "sex" satisfaction really be achieved through artificial intelligence? Judging from the current pace of development, it is very likely.

In ancient Rome, the famous poet Ovid wrote a book called "Metamorphosis".
The Metamorphoses records the story that Pygmalion was a king and sculptor of Cyprus in Greek mythology. However, he has a characteristic of this person, that is, he dislikes women in reality.
Because he was skilled in carving, he carved his "dream goddess" out of ivory according to his own ideas, and named the lifeless statue "Galathea".
Looking at the statue, he had a strong desire, not only sending flowers to the statue, wearing beautiful clothes, but also holding the statue to say love words. In his eyes, this statue is the only other half of his life.
Aphrodite, the ancient Greek goddess of love, was moved by Pygmalion's sincerity and gave life to the statue, allowing him to live an extremely happy and perfect life with the living Galathia.
Later, people used the term "Pygmalion effect" to describe that as long as a person has a persistent pursuit of artistic objects, artistic induction will occur.
Pygmalion's feelings for statues, like what people expect from their AI companions today? The answer is obvious.

Today, developed countries with extremely low fertility rates, such as Japan, have a situation in which men and women who are addicted to the two-dimensional world, although they do not get married, but they regard a role they like as an object of lifelong love.
People don't understand why some people's proclivities are so strange, they think of statues, silicone or two-dimensional illusory characters as the other half of life?
It's about people's needs. With the development of material and technological development, people are no longer satisfied with the flawed partner in reality, but pursue the perfect object in their hearts. This perfect object basically does not exist.
For example, the girl wants the boy to be powerful and single-minded, and the overbearing president falls in love with me, which is the character in the novel. The boy wants the girl to be beautiful and loyal, white and simple, which is also a fantasy character.
Although these fantasy characters are still ethereal, human beings will make them a reality through various means. Artificial intelligence, on the other hand, is precisely this possibility.
That is to say, with the development of artificial intelligence, the people in science fiction films who fall in love with AI may become a reality at some point in the future.

Some time ago, there was a news, that is, the "artificial womb", humans can simulate the conditions of the mammalian uterus and oviparous animal eggs, so that the fertilized eggs develop in an artificial environment, so as to get rid of the need for the mother.
As soon as this news appeared, it immediately caused an uproar, and many people wondered, since you can reproduce through technology, isn't it pointless to get married and have children?
In addition to the problem of "artificial uterus", there is also the problem of "chatGPT" that is currently being talked about.
chatgpt, Chinese name, is a chat-generative pre-trained transformation model. Translated into the vernacular, it is artificial intelligence that can chat with you and answer any questions you have.
The learning speed of this artificial intelligence is not comparable to that of humans. Just like the "MOSS" in "The Wandering Earth", even if humans don't care about it, it can automatically learn, automatically evolve, and be powerful enough to grasp human psychology and predict the future through data.
No one knows whether the future artificial intelligence will develop like this, we only know that people today have many ideas and needs for artificial intelligence.

Whether it is Pygmalion in "Metamorphosis", or some young men and women who use two-dimensional characters as their other half, or artificial wombs, chatbots, it shows that people have a special pursuit of "perfect opposite sex".
If modern young people don't fall in love, get married, or have children, don't they have the pursuit of a "perfect partner", don't they have desire?
Perhaps, it's not that they don't pursue, it's not that they don't have desires, but they can't find a partner who suits their hearts. At this time, can the gradually humanized AI make up for their inner shortcomings?
The answer, no one knows. If there really is this day, artificial intelligence can have the same real feelings and real touch as humans, I think the current marriage system will inevitably be impacted.
