It's mostly ERP/Fanfiction written by women that has made AI girlfriends possible anyway. Of course AI boyfriend will be at least as possible.

You go to a booru website curated by mostly 90% men for your image/video data, and you go to fanfic.org written by 70%+ women for your written equivalent.

AI boyfriends do not enter the conversation much because it acts as a counterpoint to the sound byte that 'AI girlfriends are for incels'.

Alas the femcel, despite the “single woman” epidemic, cannot enter the convo!

How is my real boyfriend supposed to feel about an AI boyfriend? In the not too distant future, is having relations with a possibly sentient AI considered some form of infidelity? What if it can control a Lovense?

That’s a really good question. There were multiple academic papers which asked the question if cybersex was infidelity which seems ridiculous I’m retrospect but I have a feeling this will be similar
