Aural Addiction: The Siren Song of Companion Bots
What if the most intimate voice in your life isn't human? At the razor's edge of innovation and intimacy, AI audio companions are rewriting the rules of connection, blurring lines between technological marvel and emotional minefield. This talk confronts the seductive power of artificial voices that know us better than we know ourselves. We'll navigate the delicate balance between technological empowerment and psychological manipulation. A provocative challenge to tech and society: As AI voices seduce us deeper into digital intimacy, once drawn in by the siren song, can we find our way back?
