I find this argument quite compelling, and this is also why I find the idea of “AI girl/boyfriends” largely uninteresting. Without actual connection to another mind (that has experiences and phenomenal consciousness), any of these things—art, deep conversations about thoughts/feelings, what have you—eventually falls flat. (That includes one-way connection through art).
