ABSTRACT

Purpose: This study explores the potential application of Communicative Artificial Intelligence (AI) dialogue in adult sex education, aiming to address the communication barriers that exist between adults about sexual knowledge and sexual needs. Methods: A case study method and semi-structured interviews were used to study a couple who had insufficient sex education in the early years leading to communication barriers. Results: Educational and cultural backgrounds, gender roles, and communication styles all affect communication between two parties. Using AI technology for sex education can improve the communication barriers between adults and enhance their understanding of sexual knowledge. AI dialogue provides a rational and analytical, non-judgmental dialogue environment for users, who are free to express their thoughts and feelings in the face of the AI virtual environment. Implications for research and practice. Integrating AI technology in adult sex education and building an inclusive and adaptive educational environment can better meet individual needs, while focusing on user privacy and data security to form a healthy and safe sex education communication network system.
