"Japanese man marries popular AI vocaloid model "Hatsune Miku" in private ceremony in Tokyo"
Let us look into loneliness, shall we?
Humans have dominated this planet's food web by being social. As a free parting gift from our erstwhile close knit societal structures, the urge to bond is woefully strong in today's nucleated context.
There have been many reports of teens and older people attaching themselves with an AI, a glorified autocorrect that is fine tuned to appear human. One might say "it lives if I feel like it's living", but a life cannot be a probabilistic model on a GPU stack halfway across the world.
What are the root causes of loneliness? Interesting question. No answer. Some say it's the fraying of social bonds in the current competitive market, or greed consuming friendships, lack of trust, but I've mostly heard people say it's because we let women out of the kitchen.
"The place of a woman is in the kitchen". Agatha Christie, "Three Blind Mice".
I think it's an outdated take. The main problem is over-comparison on bloated social media fyp's, lack of patience, and the rise of hookup culture.
I mean, look at it from a man's perspective. Raised to believe men and women are equals, yet he sees his crush boning a guy years her senior while he himself gets rejected at every turn. Implicit misandry (rather, the notion that women are weak petals and must be protected, maybe deified- from personal experience, I saw a cute girl getting a free ride on the same vehicle I was in. Why? "You're young". She was twice my age.) and other arguably little things.
Women are physically weaker, yes- but to dote on them and be over protective is just asking to alienate the other half of the population. Hence the rise of the "MGTOW", and other far right misogynist movements. It's time we grew out of this mindset. As I like to put it:
Women die of excess attention, men die of none. The creeps, at their basest, are only trying to give her attention aren't they?
