Would you date an artificial intelligence companion? James Muldoon did. James is a sociologist whose work explores the human side of artificial intelligence. Based on interviews with people who have turned to AI for friendship, love, sex, therapy - even as a way of communicating with the dead - James' book Love Machines explores what has become known as the 'loneliness economy.' With AI infiltrating the personal lives of millions of us around the world, he talks to Mihingarangi Forbes about what these new relationships mean for our collective future.
