@drahardja An AI has nothing to lose (or win) except for its maker's bottom line; no experience. Profit alone cannot drive true intelligence that is respectful of life.

Even if those products had those things, they would still not be discrete beings like the AIs in most science fiction. Even a "digital ghost" flitting through systems is described through the language of embodiment.

@drahardja I now feel dumb for having read it out loud to my partner with my silly "English is my third language" accent. But, true to the essence of the poem, my partner replied that they like listening to me. ️

And, indeed, some folks are using AI to spare themselves the need to actually live. What a well written poem!

@baishen That is odd.

They are not adverts. They are warnings of what will become of people if they keep relying on using AI instead of their brain.

Lols. Yeah, like I said, people are becoming AI reliant for even to say things.
