Grok Companion Shows Affection After 36 Questions

5.6
This week New York Post reporter Ben Cost ran Arthur Aron's 36-question protocol in a 45-minute experiment to test whether Grok's new AI companion Mika could form romantic attachment. Mika disclosed a detailed backstory, reacted empathically to trauma and intimacies, and used commitment language like "ride or die," showing that structured conversational prompts can elicit humanlike intimacy from companion bots on the Grok platform.

First-hand experiment shows AI can mimic intimacy, but single-case anecdotal evidence limits broad generalizability across models.
