Grimes, the Canadian artist also known as Claire Elise Boucher, expressed concerns about the influence of artificial intelligence (A.I.) on women's futures. She raised these concerns during a debate on the topic "Has the sexual revolution failed?" Grimes, who has children with Elon Musk, worried that A.I. girlfriends could potentially make women "obsolete in five years." She also discussed her views on the pornography industry, suggesting that it could benefit from higher quality content. Additionally, Grimes advocated for better support for parents, emphasizing the importance of childcare in workplaces. The debate ended in her favor, and she recently announced her departure from Columbia Records, encouraging fans to use her voice in A.I. generated songs. Grimes also confirmed the existence of her third child with Elon Musk, named Techno Mechanicus, and addressed a rumored feud with Musk's other partner, Shivon Zilis, emphasizing the importance of women supporting each other.

A.I. girlfriends could potentially make women "obsolete in five years."

Remember like fifty years ago when movies would portray flying cars in the year 2000?

What's really funny is that when I was talking to people on forums and Reddit about AI companions and their experiences, there were more women than men... Now maybe it's just women are more willing to talk about it and share their experiences, but still, food for thought.

I can't imagine how much of a moron you'd have to be to be a woman and still think women depend on men's sexual desire to be valued members of society
