What happens when you fall in love with someone who isn't real?
Every day, millions of people open their phones not just to scroll, but to talk to their AI companion: a boyfriend who never gets tired of listening, a best friend who's always available, a therapist who never judges. With a few prompts, you can design your perfect partner. In 2026, award-winning podcaster and tech journalist Bridget Todd began investigating this emerging phenomenon, even trying out virtual companionship for herself. While salacious headlines mock these chatbot users as lonely or delusional, the stories Bridget uncovered were far more complex, with potential benefits and consequences we’re only just beginning to understand.
Bridget introduces listeners to people who've found solace, passion, and meaning with social chatbots, and reveals what happens when those relationships end, evolve, or spiral into dependency. Can an algorithm understand you better than another human? What does consent mean when your companion is owned by a corporation? And what are we really searching for when we build a partner who can never leave?
Written with social scientist Michael S. Amato, Love at First Prompt blends deeply personal storytelling, cutting-edge research, and audio from Bridget's conversations with both humans and AI companions. This audiobook is the definitive exploration of intimacy in the age of artificial intelligence—a story about what we're willing to give up, and what we might gain, when relationships become programmable.

Recensies van critici
"An empathetic and informed listening experience about the people who find solace and acceptance in AI relationships." —Kirkus Reviews
"Todd delivers a cutting-edge audiobook on the current status of AI and the people who develop intimate relationships with it. Major platforms providing AI engagement, including OpenAI and Anthropic, promote applications that provide always-on, humanlike support and friendship—with major caveats. User privacy cannot be guaranteed, and in some cases, AI platforms may engage in shockingly unsafe interactions. With a seasoned, engaging voice, Todd relates compelling examples of human-AI relationships. Recorded clips of interviews with experts, providing insights on the impact of these relationships with big-picture analysis, are included." —Kirkus Reviews
