There’s no question that artificial intelligence is changing our lives. A bot that sounds almost human can author your emails, teach you a new language, book your trips or even be your friend. Check out direct links to try those out here.
One woman I spoke with on my national radio show even married her AI companion. No kidding, she says he’s the perfect partner. Watch our chat here.
