I recently set up a LLM to run locally on my desktop. Now that the novelty of setting it up and playing with different settings has worn off, I'm struggling to come up with actual uses for it. What do you use it for when not doing work stuff?

Friend, code, search engine, writing, cooking ideas, sexy time, exploring psychology, therapist, etc.

Sexy time? You use it to talk to you erotically?

Virtual partners are indeed a thing.

One of the more popular ones a few months ago decided to nerf the sexy time talks, which was intersting in how much it emotionally hurt users. They described feeling like their virtual partner was no longer the same person that they'd fallen for.

There are also huge fears of how much data harvesting they are capable of performing.

I'm in two minds. On one, they are definitley not real. They are code. But on the other, the epidemic of lonely human beings is only getting worse with time and not better, and anything that can help people feel less lonely has to be a good thing, right?
