    Sex workers offering emotional support is an old trope, so I guess it was always part of the job. What bothers me more is AI joining the game and how widespread loneliness seems to be, especially among men.

      Loneliness seems more connected to late stage capitalism to me. Individualism has been pushed too far. The quest for a glorified independancy and the monetizatization of everything is destroying social links. There are many other things that capitalist culture favor, and they’re all as damaging to socialisation and society.
