Show Notes

Role-playing AI companions were designed to feel real. The problem is they work — and the emotional trap is built directly into the product architecture. This episode examines the exact mechanisms: variable reward schedules that create compulsion, friction-removal design that replaces human relationships, and memory features that map your psychological pressure points. Why teenagers are the primary target, and what the exit actually requires. The Skillful Art of Manipulation — new episodes every week.
