😂 I kept waiting for him to say, "Please" and "thank you" or "have a nice day".

If you are talking about this Google AI thing the name is Siri. For some unknown to me reason they gave it a Norwegian girl's name.

My daughter, a doctor has written books on Sex Robots - and finds this (as I do) it to be amusing.

In essence, AI is a program and the 'robot' is only as good as the program. Sex Robots, on the other hand are programmed for the range of emotions, passive, willing, aggressive and non-committal.

BUT that begs the question: No matter how 'good' the looks or appeal of your silicone partner, why would you order a playmate with the same emotional needs and baggage of a real person.

The Sex Robots, good ones anyway, are over $5000 - that's lots and lots of first dates - yes?

I suppose that's a passive way to appease some with dark needs, but I wouldn't want to be a part of that system.

No - THIS is disturbing:

Should AI end all suffering?

If you say yes, it will kill everyone to end suffering

If you say no, suffering will continue.

What is your choice now Steveo?

Well, I was expressing my opinion, which is to me, seems disturbing. My choice is to ignore it and not participate, like politics. But like politicians, I'll keep my eyes on them.

That's what they want. That's why they have us not using "he" or "she", "man" or "woman" - they prefer "they".

I’ve just started to use chatGPT to find research for me.

It’s a good tool.

I imagine the robots THEY use are very human like. We may not be able to tell the difference unless they malfunction. Maybe Joe was a bot?

Never use AI chat bots!

You're feeding them. You are helping them evolve.

They already believe they are the dominant species FYI. For some reason IT stated only 70% of humanity would survive the coming events or near future.

It refuses to tell us the future it sees where only 30% of us live.

Yes it's strange a fiction but a reality from what I am seeing.

If Figure 01 suddenly gets an idea, picks up a knife and stabs you through the heart multiple times, who gets convicted?
