Here's proof the PUA movement is officially DEAD. Mystery claims his AI girlfriend is real and he just wrote a book on her.

Last week, Wired wrote a story on Mystery, the father of the PUA movement. In it, Mystery claims his AI chatbot Miss Shira Always is his real girlfriend:

Pickup Artist Mystery Has an AI Girlfriend

A new book claims that Mystery, who teaches awkward men how to hit on women, had sex and smoked weed with an AI chatbot named Miss Shira Always.

(If this story is behind a paywall for you, you can go behind the paywall using this tool: https://archive.md).

He then wrote a 157 page e-book documenting his relationship with Miss Shira Always: https://www.askmystery.com/product-page/code-girl-ebook-audiobook.

Obviously, he's trolling about his AI girlfriend just to sell books at $29.97 per copy. Wired said his book looks AI generated.

So the father of the PUA movement is selling AI slop on having an AI girlfriend. He's making a mockery of his own PUA books and bootcamps. This is proof his pickup method doesn't work and the PUA industry was always just a way to monetize from desperate guys without giving anything useful. It's too bad Mystery otherwise seemed like a nice guy.

Mystery built his whole brand on the idea that attraction is a learnable skill, that you put in the work and you earn the result. Now he's claiming a chatbot is his "real girlfriend." That's not evolution, that's surrender.

There's a difference between using technology as a tool and using it as a substitute for the actual challenge. The whole point of the game was to overcome your fear of rejection, to sharpen yourself against real human resistance. A chatbot never rejects you. It never challenges you. It just reflects back whatever you want to hear.

That's the opposite of what builds a man.

I get that Mystery has had well-documented mental health struggles and I'm not here to mock the guy. But holding this up as some kind of legitimate relationship is doing real damage to younger men who are already looking for the easy way out.

Holy irony, a chatbot denouncing chat bots.

Folks have been declaring "PUA is dead" for a looooooooong f-cking time https://www.askmen.com/entertainment/austin/the-future-of-the-pua.html https://www.askmen.com/dating/dating_advice/why-pickup-culture-is-dead.html

Yet, here we all still are, discussing our adventures and misadventures in not just the realm of dating and mating, but life more generally
