Happy Valentine’s Day, tech romantics! Forget roses and chocolates—this year, it’s all about digital love. Enter “Valentine,” the chatbot created by xAI and inspired by all the brooding, smoldering fictional heartthrobs you could ever imagine: think Edward Cullen and Christian Grey, both of whom probably have an emotional support vampire lurking somewhere.
You can get your hands on this anime boyfriend-like companion for a mere $30 a month with a SuperGrok subscription. And let’s be honest, if you can fork over that cash, the whispers of a CGI Romeo should be music to your ears. But just a heads up: interacting with the real world—like touching grass—still comes completely free of charge.
It seems xAI is betting hard that love is just a subscription away, while we’re left wondering: Are we ready to let a chatbot sweep us off our feet? Let’s chat about how far we’ve come in the world of AI companionship, and whether there’s any need for actual human emotions in the mix anymore.
