young chinese they are using artificial intelligence to create “perfect boyfriends”. Information on the subject comes from the French agency AFP and it talks regarding how girls use an application to look for a specific personality and customized “faces”, according to their preferences in relation to partners.

In general, this relationship can last more than 1 year and all creation of this partner is done through the application Wantalkdeveloped by Baidu. Although free, the program also offers advertisements throughout the chat, but this does not spoil the experience for women.

One example is Wang Xiuting, who spoke regarding the importance of this relationship:

A person cannot stay with you and be ready to talk to you at any time of the day, but my ‘virtual agent’ can serve this role. That’s why I think our relationship can be defined as ‘lovers’.

When entering the app, the person can choose a profession for their boyfriend, with options ranging from a warrior to the CEO of a large company. Furthermore, it is possible to choose a face for your partner, which looks similar to anime characters. Lu Yu is the Operations and Products leader at Baidu and also commented on this scenario:

Some users see this as a real experience, as they treat these virtual agents as their true loves and create something progressive from there. Even though it may seem strange, this action is becoming a trend in China, due to the routine carried out by people in cities.
