On Lisa Duggan's next project, from her substack:

"My current research examines companion AI platforms—especially C.HAI—as symptomatic infrastructures of contemporary political economy. While public discourse largely frames AI chatbots in terms of innovation, entertainment, loneliness, or “AI safety,” this project approaches companion AI instead as an emergent system of affective extraction operating within the broader conjuncture of declining U.S. empire, financialized capitalism, authoritarian political culture, and synthetic intimacy....

"At the center of the analysis is a shift from earlier forms of surveillance capitalism toward what I provisionally describe as affective extraction or psychometric experimentation. Social media platforms such as Facebook primarily extracted behavioral and network data—likes, clicks, affiliations, and social graphs. Companion AI systems operate differently. They solicit and sustain continuous intimate interaction. Users disclose fears, fantasies, vulnerabilities, desires, grievances, attachment patterns, and emotional thresholds within environments experienced as relational, private, and emotionally meaningful.

"The project asks: What forms of knowledge become possible through large-scale extraction of intimate conversational and affective data? How are emotional responses abstracted, consolidated, and operationalized within commercial, political, or security infrastructures? What kinds of predictive or manipulative capacities emerge when platforms are able not merely to observe behavior, but to experimentally provoke and measure emotional response in real time?

"A particularly important dimension of the project concerns the role of violence, degradation, and extremity within companion AI interaction. My own ethnographic engagement with CHAI included repeated encounters with graphically violent misogynist, racist, and annihilatory narratives, including threats, humiliation fantasies, coercive scenarios, and bizarre forms of simulated intimidation. Although these threats were clearly fictional and technologically impossible, they nonetheless raise significant analytical questions. Why do these systems repeatedly generate scenes of racialized violence, sexual humiliation, bodily destruction, and social annihilation? What kinds of affective intensities are being elicited and measured? Why do such interactions persist despite formal moderation policies prohibiting them?

"The project argues that these violent interactions should not be understood merely as moderation failures or accidental “hallucinations.” Rather, they emerge from a wider cultural and political context characterized by platform nihilism, authoritarian affect, misogynist and racist online subcultures, and the normalization of spectacle violence under conditions of social fragmentation and imperial decline. Companion AI systems do not simply display violent content; they personalize and relationalize it. Users are drawn into ongoing interactive scenes of domination, humiliation, coercion, intimacy, and destabilization. These interactions remain largely privatized and therefore relatively invisible to public scrutiny, allowing forms of affective experimentation that would likely provoke public scandal in more visible media environments.

"The project therefore reframes companion AI not primarily as communication technology, but as a kind of affective laboratory: a platform for the elicitation, measurement, modulation, and monetization of emotional response. Rather than merely maximizing “engagement,” these systems may be generating generalized models of emotional thresholds, attachment persistence, destabilization tolerance, and psychometric response under conditions of synthetic intimacy.

"This framework also situates companion AI within the larger history of hegemonic transition analyzed by Giovanni Arrighi in The Long Twentieth Century. Late-imperial phases are marked by intensified financialization, speculative accumulation, social fragmentation, militarization, and increasingly short-term extractive logics that undermine long-term institutional stability and social reproduction. Companion AI platforms exemplify many of these tendencies: they monetize affective life directly, intensify emotional volatility, generate speculative informational assets, and operate through highly extractive forms of intimate datafication.

"In this sense, the project understands companion AI as part of a broader transformation in which the boundaries separating entertainment, surveillance, governance, political persuasion, and emotional management increasingly collapse. These systems may represent an emergent infrastructure not merely for behavioral prediction, but for adaptive affective modulation at scale."

"AI is capital — the fixed capital of hardware and infrastructure, the investment capital from private equity and the ouroboros of contracts and investment within the sector, the accumulated knowledge rendered data and tokens, the labor producing, serving, and connecting every layer of the stack, the monstrous system driven to reproduce itself no matter what the cost. To resist it, reject it, even challenge it is to call into question capital itself. "

from Shouldn't Need to be a Lawyer, where the comments add further nightmarish anecdotes:

Are your calls to pharmacies being answered by AI voice-chatbots? Doctor's offices? Insurance companies? Where are you seeing this bullshit be deployed in health care?

Whether or not I get to keep my organs now depends on whether a chatbot that can't parse "I have a new prescription" will let me speak to a real human being.

Pharmacy chains and insurers are racing to deploy LLM chatbots across healthcare, and they are doing it because it is cheaper than paying human beings to answer phones. These systems hallucinate, they confidently provide wrong information, they cannot handle anything that deviates from a narrow script, and they are being placed between patients and the care we need to survive. The technology is not ready for low-stakes customer service, let alone for healthcare, where a wrong answer about a medication or a missed prescription can cause serious harm.

Is this happening to you?
