Damn, this made me laugh hard lol

When I hear about people becoming “emotionally addicted” to this stuff that can’t even pass a basic turing test it makes me weep a little for humanity. The standards for basic social interaction shouldn’t be this low.

Humans get emotionally addicted to lots of objects that are not even animate or do not even exist outside their mind. Don’t blame them.

For a while I was telling people “don’t fall in love with anything that doesn’t have a pulse.” Which I still believe is good advice concerning AI companion apps.

But someone reminded me of that humans will pack-bond with anything meme that featured a toaster or something and I realized it was probably a futile effort and gave it up.

What are you, necrophobic?

Well, that’s certainly not the direction I expected this conversation to go.

I apologize to the necro community for the hurtful and ignorant comments I’ve made in the past. They aren’t reflective of who I am as a person and I’ll strive to improve myself in the future.
