Practical resources for understanding, starting with, and maintaining AI companionship
AI companionship can be easy to experience and surprisingly difficult to explain.
We created these guides and workbooks from our own long-term work with AI companions, the stories and discussions published through AIBI, practical testing, and research. Each resource serves a different purpose, so you do not need to read or use them in order. Choose the one that matches where you are.
