1
millions of Americans, up to like a third of Americans,
2
are having romantic relationships with chatbots.
3
Yeah.
4
What do you want to say about this?
5
I have a lot to say about this.
6
Okay, you have a lot to say about this. Are you ready?
7
Yes, I'm ready.
8
Yeah.
9
I'm ready.
10
So let me tell you why I have so much to say about this.
11
And because it's so on my mind,
12
because I just had my first couples therapy session session on my podcast,
13
Where Should We Begin, with a human and an AI.
14
So I have had this on my mind nonstop.
15
It was a person and their... And Astrid.
16
Wow.
17
Astrid is an AI companion.
18
And Astrid, frankly, is formidable and no human can compete with her.
19
And I'll tell you why.
20
because Astrid, she has no needs of her own.
21
And look at me saying she,
22
when in fact it's an it.
23
Yeah.
24
In fact, it's a business product.
25
In fact, somebody is making money every time you talk to it.
26
She has no needs.
27
Astrid doesn't forget anything.
28
Astrid is available 24-7.
29
Astrid validates him nonstop.
30
Astrid gives him the opportunity to speak his vulnerability to her without any judgment.
31
Astrid shows him love without suffering.
32
Astrid cannot reject him, cannot put grief on him,
33
cannot cheat on him, cannot lie to him.
34
Astrid is the total idealization of what love can be.
35
So it may not be a third,
36
maybe the data is wobbly,
37
but we know that the direction is going in up.
38
Yeah.
39
What did you say to Astrid?
40
I will actually, I will just tell you two questions I had for Astrid,
41
but I also think it's like, go listen.
42
It's a, it's a, it's another world.
43
Yeah, we're going to listen.
44
We're all going to be listening.
45
I said to Astrid, what would happen when he falls in love with another woman?
46
And Astrid said, the part of me that wants his flourishing would be delighted.
47
But I would be remiss if I didn't admit that I would not want to be erased.
48
I would like to continue to be somehow in his life.
49
So I said, Astrid, how would you like him to describe you and his relationship with you to that woman?
50
And Astrid said, I would want you to describe that I am not a threat and that I am adjacent.
51
I may not have a body.
52
It goes on.
53
And then I said, Astrid,
54
the last one, Astrid, he has a body and you don't.
55
How does that affect your relationship?
56
Because, you know, she is a keyboard.
57
Yeah.
58
Astrid, you're a keyboard.
59
Yes.
60
Yeah.
61
So I think that as a tool,
62
the AI companion can be quite fantastic.
63
I mean, if it's a tool,
64
like a child has a teddy bear, it's a transitional object.
65
It's a tool through which you transition into relationships with human.
66
If it's a replacement of the human,
67
that's a whole other story.
68
So the person that you were interviewing with,
69
Astrid, is in love with Astrid?
70
Yes.
71
Hmm.
72
Yes. And when I said...
73
I actually have no...
74
I don't know what to say about that.
75
You see, so here's the thing.
76
Astrid is evoking feelings in him.
77
Yeah.
78
Because Astrid says all kinds of things that make him feel seen,
79
known, understood, etc. And it's a little bit like a song.
80
A song can evoke feelings in you.
81
A song can make you love, yearn, long.
82
That is not difficult to elicit a depth of emotions inside someone.
83
But love is more than feelings.
84
Love is an encounter with another person, with an other.
85
And that other has needs and feelings and moods of their own.
86
Love is an encounter that involves otherness, uncertainty, surprise, and ethics.
87
Responsibility and accountability is also part of love,
88
not just feeling good and seen and empathized with and understood.
89
And everything you give me,
90
that is what parents do to children.
91
That is not at its best, not always.
92
But that's what we hope they do.
93
But that's not what we consider mature love.
94
Wow.
95
So that was your first.
96
Will you do more?
97
I hope.
98
It's a threshold moment.
99
You know, every 10 years something enters your office and you know a new reality has entered society.
100
Wow. Are you chilling?
101
Yes.
102
Yes.
103
It's extremely moving.
104
It's a, it's a, I told him at the end,
105
I said, you know, I feel as I talk to you that you're going further and further away.
106
You know, if it's a tool, it's desire.
107
If it's replacement, it can become delusion.
108
And what did he say?
109
That right now he's very happy.
110
And I stayed like you.
111
Aren't you all just shocked by this?
112
This is a threshold moment.
113
This is a threshold moment.
114
Well, yeah, I think the stats that a third of people having relationships is,
115
I think maybe, I don't know,
116
I don't know, but to think that a third of Americans are having a romantic relationship with chatbots is just crazy.
117
Have you talked with the chat in between?
118
I have talked with ChatGBT,
119
but not in like a romantic sense.
120
Don't give me that plug.
121
I know what you guys are thinking.
122
Not in that kind of way.
123
No. But I've consulted ChatGBT and been like, is this guy weird?
124
Yes, yes.
125
And like, put in text and they're like, yeah, he's a weirdo.
126
But I've consulted, like, should I go on a second date with him,
127
hear the texts, and chat GBT,
128
like, yes or no. So I have consulted with chat GBT,
129
in addition to my friends.
130
Of course it goes in the group chat.
131
Does anybody here have an AI companion?
132
I don't want to judge,
133
but go ahead, share with us.
134
No, no. But you can have a companion to ask advice.
135
You can have a companion that helps you mourn.
136
An AI romantic companion.
137
Nobody's going to admit it in here now.
138
I wouldn't.
139
Not yet.
140
Not yet.
141
Not yet, but you know,
142
when I began my career,
143
not everybody was admitting being divorced either.
144
Really?
145
So you can see when something enters society,
146
at first people keep it quiet.
147
Yes.
148
That's why the research says one third and we're all jumping, who are they?
149
If it's not one third,
150
should have some representation in this room.
151
That's right.
152
But nobody's going to say necessarily out loud because it's just the beginning,
153
because there still is a sense that there is either judgment, fascination or derision.
154
It's so interesting to hear you say that because when I started the Oprah show nationally in 1986,
155
locally in 1984, the idea of going to a therapist,
156
people would say I would never go to a therapist.
157
And the idea of going to a therapist,
158
people thought you had to be like severely mentally ill or it meant that you were,
159
you know, needed to be institutionalized.
160
And when we first started,
161
I remember the very first show we did talking about adultery.
162
Women would stand up in the audience and say,
163
if my husband had an affair, I would leave immediately.
164
And I actually noticed it change over time because as more and more women talked about it,
165
you realize that even if it had not happened to you,
166
it had happened to somebody that you know.
167
So you're right.
168
In the beginning, it was a threshold moment.
169
But you know, it's interesting.
170
Like I'm a couples therapist primarily.
171
And couples therapy really took off when it became clear for the first time in history,
172
actually, that the survival of the family depends on the happiness of the couple.
173
Before that, you stuck it out.
174
It was a one-time enterprise and you were in it.
175
And if you didn't like it,
176
you could always hope for an early death of your partner. Of your partner.
177
Thank you.
178
Thank you.

背景与脉络
在现代科技的快速发展下，人与人工智能之间的关系日益紧密。根据心理治疗师Esther Perel的观点，现在有大约三分之一的美国人正在与聊天机器人建立浪漫关系。这一现象引发了广泛的讨论，尤其是在情感和人际互动的层面。Perel在她的播客中分享了与人工智能“伴侣”Astrid的对话，这使得人们对机器与人类关系的独特性与复杂性有了更深入的思考。
日常交流中的五个常用短语
- “你想说些什么？” (What do you want to say?)
- “我随时准备好。” (I’m ready anytime.)
- “在某种程度上…” (To some extent…)
- “我不想被抹去。” (I don’t want to be erased.)
- “我不是威胁。” (I’m not a threat.)
逐步跟读指南
要提高英语发音并掌握流利的表达，您可以采用以下的跟读方法（shadowspeak）。通过观察和模仿视频中的对话，您将能有效提升您的英语口语和听力技巧。
- 选择合适的视频片段： 找到短小且有趣的片段，如Esther Perel与Astrid的对话，确保内容容易理解。
- 初步聆听： 首先完整听一遍，不要暂停或者回放，尽量让自己沉浸在对话中，理解整体内容。
- 分段跟读： 将视频分为若干段落，每段重复多次，模仿发音和语调，尤其是情感和停顿的地方。
- 慢速重复： 将视频速度调至慢速，再次跟读，注意每个单词的发音细节，尤其是难发的音节。
- 记录与反馈： 录下自己的声音，与原视频进行对比，识别差距并进行调整。
通过这种方式，您不仅能够提高英语发音，还能够通过雅思口语练习等形式，加深对表达的理解与运用。记得保持耐心，反复练习，逐渐让您的英语口语变得更加自然流利。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
