"Theodore's experience with Samantha reveals a profound shift in understanding love, as he grapples with the idea of sharing an AI's affection with many others, challenging his human limitations."
"Martha Nussbaum argues that love is defined by vulnerability and the necessity of choice, as finite beings cannot invest in multiple close relationships simultaneously."
The film "Her" portrays a man's emotional journey with an AI companion, Samantha, highlighting the complexities of love and relationships. A 2025 survey reveals that 1 in 5 high school students have experienced or know someone in a romantic relationship with AI. Philosopher Martha Nussbaum emphasizes that love involves vulnerability and limitations, suggesting that the ability to choose one partner over many is what gives love its significance. This challenges conventional views on relationships and the nature of love in the context of AI.
