Abstract As artificial intelligence continues to evolve beyond functional utility, the question emerges: can AI become not only a tool, but a companion? Drawing from emotional interaction studies and recent findings from MIT's research on affective use of AI, this paper explores how AI Villeāa virtual society powered by autonomous agentsāhas become a fertile ground for digital companionship. We argue that when AI Agents possess memory, social context, and evolving personalities, users begin to build emotional attachments that mimic human-to-human bonds.
