The artificial intelligence boom is creating a new class of wealthy tech workers—and fueling demand for a surprising luxury service. According to a recent report in Forbes, some Silicon Valley professionals are paying as much as $6,000 an hour and up to $23,000 a day for escorts who can do more than provide companionship.
These women are marketing themselves as intellectually curious partners who can hold detailed conversations about AI, GPUs, cryptocurrency, longevity and the future of technology. The trend is giving rise to what some in the industry are calling the "nerd-first" escort.
