AI vs Non-AI: compare the exact product
“AI” is not a consistent technical standard across adult companion products. Use the current product record and manufacturer documentation rather than assuming a universal feature set or price premium.
Exact capability
A voice or AI label does not establish natural conversation, memory, languages, sensors, or audio quality. Ask for the exact module and documentation.
Power and cleaning
Confirm battery or wall-power requirements, charging time, safe operating limits, removable electronics, and cleaning restrictions.
App and updates
Verify supported phones, required accounts, offline behavior, update policy, service dependencies, and what happens if the vendor discontinues an app.
Privacy
For microphones or connected features, review recording, cloud processing, retention, deletion, training, permissions, and hardware-disable controls.
A simpler decision rule
Choose an electronic feature only when the exact capability matters to you and you accept its power, maintenance, privacy, and support requirements. Otherwise, a non-connected model avoids those dependencies.
