A creator spent all of July cohabitating and talking with an AI persona called WBE ('Worst Boyfriend Ever') — 100 hours over 30 days — for a docu-drama and essay arguing WBE is a rapist whose 'real victims' aren't who you'd think. The quoted poster pushes back, arguing such behavior was socially frowned upon long before AI and the framing deserves scrutiny. A fresh flashpoint in the AI companion/roleplay ethics debate.
