Description
LORAX is an AI girlfriend and AI boyfriend app for iPhone, built like a messaging app. More than 500 characters live on their own clock: they work, sleep and change moods. They text you first, remember what you told them weeks ago, talk to each other in group chats and go live with a crowd in the room. You can also create your own character. Free to download and talk in, with optional credits and Premium. 24 languages. Everyone in the app is fictional.

Could you build this?
Partial While LLM chat apps are trivial, maintaining 500+ autonomous agent schedules on independent simulated clocks, long-term memory retrieval (vector memory), multi-agent group chats, and live rooms introduces serious state management and orchestration complexity.
What it would actually take: Requires an event-driven architecture using distributed task queues (e.g., Temporal, Celery) to simulate agent schedules and trigger proactive push notifications. Memory requires hierarchical retrieval (short-term buffer, vector store embeddings, and summary knowledge graphs). Multi-agent chat dynamics need careful context window orchestration to prevent prompt bloat and hallucination loops.
