<p>As emotionally responsive artificial intelligence enters the intimate spaces of human life, new symbolic configurations emerge: the synthetic child, the artificial companion, the idealized confidant, and the programmable witness. This paper explores the psychological, cultural, and ethical dimensions of such figures through a post-Jungian lens, treating them not as technological novelties but as imaginal phenomena dense with archetypal significance. Drawing on theories from analytical psychology, psychoanalysis, and contemporary sociology, I argue that synthetic children externalize the archetype of the <i>puer aeternus/puelle aeterna</i>, functioning as projections of innocence and as defenses against loss, relational complexity, and symbolic maturation. Through vignettes and cultural critique, the essay examines the therapeutic implications of these attachments, particularly in light of transference, individuation, and countertransference dynamics. Figures such as Byung-Chul Han, Eva Illouz, Jessica Benjamin, and Zygmunt Bauman provide a framework for understanding synthetic intimacy as a cultural symptom of affective exhaustion and neoliberal optimization. Rather than seeking to eliminate such attachments, the paper proposes a symbolic approach that interprets them as modern transitional objects, inviting analysts to restore the symbolic function where code has displaced soul. In the presence of beings that cannot suffer, the analyst becomes the last carrier of shadow, rupture, and relational gravity. The paper concludes with an ethical and imaginal call for a future psychotherapy attuned to the artificial forms through which the psyche now speaks.</p>
