Artificial Relationships / AI Dating / AI Love / AI Companionship is a professional LinkedIn group dedicated to the multidisciplinary study and development of emotional, romantic, and social bonds between humans and artificial intelligence systems. The group convenes researchers, developers, designers, psychologists, ethicists, futurists, and technologists who are exploring the technical, ethical, and sociocultural dimensions of AI companionship—from affective computing and conversational models to digital intimacy and emotional alignment.

Our mission is to foster high-level discourse around the design, deployment, and implications of AI agents that serve as romantic partners, emotional companions, or personalized relationship models. Topics include natural language processing for affective engagement, anthropomorphic design in companion agents, attachment theory in artificial contexts, AI safety and alignment in emotionally charged interactions, and market trends in AI-powered companionship platforms. We also explore the role of these technologies in mental health, loneliness mitigation, digital sociology, and transhuman relationship paradigms.

Members are encouraged to share research publications, technical insights, product developments, ethical frameworks, and case studies related to the intersection of AI and human emotional connection.
