AI Girlfriend? Impossible.
AI Girlfriend? I don’t think so. Here are three reasons:
1. An AI system is not conscious.
2. An AI system is not a person.
3. An AI system is not biological and thus has no biological sex.
Elaboration:
Regarding (1), friendship is, by definition, a relationship between conscious beings in which the individuals bond with each other regarding matters of intellect, will, desire, emotion, interests, etc. AI systems lack consciousness and thus can’t possess such mental characteristics.
(2) addresses a similar point. Human friendship is a relationship between persons. It makes no sense to speak of a girlfriend that isn’t a person.
Do I really need to explain (3)? I’ll leave you to ponder the point.
