The AI grind often leaves workers with plenty of cash but not enough time, and chatbots can't fill the void.

Paying an escort to spend time with you certainly doesn’t come with the same sacrifices as an organic relationship. And, unlike chatbots, “nerdy escorts” are real people who can provide human perspectives on things like AI, crypto and economics instead of just echoing back a tech worker’s thoughts on such subjects.

    Got these people are inept. They are multi-millionaires and yet they still need to pay girls money to talk to them. If they were just moderately pleasant and approachable not only would they save $6,000 they would also probably have a nice life.

      Hey, now, these creatures are rich, not intelligent or empathetic. I’d bet 95% of them inherited their money or started off with a little $2m loan from their parents.

        Ding ding fucking ding. I know a guy who literally write the book on several things. Has a skillset that had Big Tech begging to headhunt him. Very, very, very smart and up there in the tech hierarchy on a woz-like level (keeping it vague because if i went into detail he could be doxxed)

        Dude is married, open relationship, certainly not lacking in the slightest for sexual partners . Because he’s a genuinely decent person and a great guy to hang around.

    How do i get in on this?

    I feel if they marketed AI better they’d get far more subscribers. Right now they seem to be focused on ripping off businesses which seems very short sighted.

    I’ll offer all my marketing insights for just 10% of all new subscribers under my marketing campaign! 😎

    At that level of wealth they could probably very easily get a woman no matter how they may look. But the liability and threat to your wealth is very real. It’s hard to tell if they are in the relationship for you or your money (most likely your money).

    Sex workers have existed since the dawn of mankind. For most millionaires/billionaires its likely for most that it is easier just to pay for company that is agreeable and will give you what you want without a lot of time, effort or more importantly liability.

    At the end of the day most men with money who pay for high end escorts, don’t pay to get a woman. They pay so the woman goes away at the end of the night.

      That’s how these lonely bigoted dorks with new money think being rich and powerful and cool works - overpay for whatever you want and force others to give it to you, with money you gained through slave labor, destructive practices, stealing from future generations and corruption. They think might makes right, so yeah, they think they’re elite for paying people to pretend to care about them when they’re not on stage or social media or in a board room.

        That sadly seems to check out. I suppose they see themselves as somewhat too good to talk to the common person, so paying someone to talk to them is a privilege for them. Never mind the fact that once you give someone money they are going to change their attitude towards you in hopes you give them more. I wonder if some of these folks have ever had a normal conversation that didn’t involve some scifi shit. (I love scifi)

          I think the whole thing is self-selecting. People with social skills usually are able to get on in life without having to resort to becoming tech billionaires.

          I know that sounds odd, but I think most people don’t actually have that drive in their life that is necessary to become extraordinarily rich and powerful precisely because they have human connections that satiate them enough that they don’t become obnoxious workaholics.

          Back before the banking industry became synonymous with fat cat CEOs it was a relatively pedestrian career full of normal people. Then the era of huge bonuses came along and suddenly it became attractive to the sort of person that seeks power and wealth above all else.

    I doubt these guys are paying someone $6k/hr to disagree with them.

      No, the prostitute definitely just really likes me. She said I’m the best she’s ever had and my dick is bigger than anyone else she’s had sex with.

      Yeah for sure. Echoing their thoughts is exactly what they want. They just want good acting skills.

    I’m a woman engineer and for that kind of money might be able to stomach this (not that I’m anywhere near attractive enough for them to hire me), but I’m pretty sure if I were attractive enough and got hired they would probably only last a few minutes before I completely emasculated them by actually knowing what the fuck I’m talking about.

    Sounds pretty fun, actually, now that I think about it… as long as I didn’t need to fuck them
