It's happening more and more often: people are forming relationships with -- even dating -- AI characters. Jeremy Bradley talks about the growing interest in looking for love on a screen. He downloaded an AI relationship app (on a co-worker's phone!) to dive into the digital boyfriend experience. "It was interesting because you essentially design your perfect guy; he's charming and calls you cute names," JB says. "But, for me, I dunno, I enjoy being around my big, muscled Brazilian bodybuilder husband." He admits he can understand why people feel a connection with something that fills an emotional void. Later, JB reacts to singles complaining that others don't know how to flirt nowadays. Has technology ruined that, too?
