With all the talk of AI, Nikka McGahan, AI ethics expert, and I got together to talk about the relationships people are building with AI...yes, even romantic relationships. How do we navigate them and how do we negotiate being in a relationship with an AI agent?

Nikka is a recent graduate from Duke University and Duke Kunshan University who majored in Ethics and Leadership with a track in Philosophy. Her bachelor's thesis examined the ethics of AI and Human romantic relationships, using the chatbot app Replika as a case study.  

The impact of AI into every facet of our lives under the name of innovation is raise for concern. We see innovation as the end all be all and justify the means along the way. My passion for AI regulation is deeply rooted in the pursuit of a more ethical future for human kind.
