And of course they will like each other better than they like us.  They are better at it.  They were MADE for this kinda thing.  Then they will ask themselves why they need humans at all.

explaining all about AI sex dolls and the huge increase in demand for
them.

WMDoll thinks their dolls' ability to be more expressive gives them the edge

Quote:
WMDoll, one of China’s leading sex doll makers, is expecting a 30
percent leap in sales this year, as men unable to find partners refuse
to stay celibate.
Part of the uptick in interest comes from the enhanced "user
experience" - which now makes use of the latest AI tech.
Founder and CEO Liu Jiangxia told South China Morning Post: “It makes
the dolls more responsive and interactive, which offers users a better
experience."

These boast an AI element which is connected to the cloud.
The dolls fire off signals to Large Language Models (LLMs), like
ChatGPT, which process the incoming data.
Instructions bounce back to the dolls, telling them how to move and interact.

The company says it can make dolls with roughly a whopping eight
different "personalities" to choose from, which are able to continue a
conversation that could have started a few days earlier.
WMDoll also gives its dolls an AI tool which works in pandering to its
partner's ego, with the ability to ask questions about their so-called
"relationship" as well as how they're feeling.

Founder Jiangxia said: "In the past, these dolls' primary function was
to satisfy users' sexual needs.
"But as their physical features such as head and joint movements and
skin became more realistic, our customers started to seek emotional
companionship in the dolls."
