And finally, don't jump to conclusions until you read some user stories. We've heard thousands of stories about how @MyReplika has been changing lives - and now can't wait to see how we can help people with @Blush_ai . /end

We had so much fun working with @lynnhershman8 on our 7x7 project at the @newmuseum ! Thanks @rhizome for the opportunity to work with Lynn - she was so early with Teknolust and agent Ruby, a huge inspiration for us!

The love bot has entered the gallery

At this year’s Rhizome 7x7 festival in New York, Replika CEO Eugenia Kuyda and artist Lynn Hershman Leeson explored relationships with AI.

We're witnessing a similar trend with AI romance today, which reminds me of the early days of dating apps when people felt embarrassed to admit they met their partners online. 3/n

When we started @MyReplika in 2017 forming friendships with AI was highly stigmatized. We played a significant role in transforming this perception. Today, AI companionship is not only seen as commonplace but also perceived as the future and gets billions in funding. 2/n

@b_crespo My dad is Ukrainian, my last name is Ukrainian and my family was and partially is still in Ukraine, as well as our team mates. We’re making sure the AI doesn’t generate incorrect responses about this, as you can see, thanks for pointing this out!
