Chatting with Confidants or Corporation? Privacy Management with AI Companions

This research brief summarizes findings from research on how users of AI companionship platforms manage privacy across emotional and institutional boundaries. Emotional intimacy and corporate data practices intersect in human–AI interactions. The human-like design features of AI can blur distinctions between interpersonal intimacy and corporate surveillance.
