Alright real reply: I still can't take the idea of of fully sentient AI capable of even a shade of what the human brain being built by human hands anytime soon seriously (however wrong i may be). It's basically a maze of mirrors that is the most productively unproductive machine, with all the convolutions that implies,
When I imagine a "perfect" friend I don't imagine anything, human beings are formed just as equally by their failures and failure to learn from their mistakes, not just their successes. You've surely encountered those poor souls who buy books to make them seductive or whatever and the mockery of charisma that comes oozing out the begging to quiver lip, canned and soulless even if it sounds the same. I don't know care about souls, but I do like to think that there's something in people that makes us do good/selfless stuff sometimes that tells evolutionary psychology to go to bed and can be neither brushed under cold logic or protective familial instinct
Oddly enough when it comes to Big Data etc while I oppose it on principal I'm oddly unfazed about them knowing everything about me (I'm pretty okay with me, idk)
and for real can you get high off computers now
