      Disagree with the second one.

      You’ve never seen people dining with photographs / stuffed toys / [other miscellaneous items] ?

      Just use one of those LLMs that talk back to you in real time, give it the voice of your waifu, and put your phone near the photo / animé figurine / pony plushie with conveniently placed hole in the rear and you have a fully interactive evening out with your favourite fictional character!

      “Subscribe to our service!” “No.”

      “Why not?” “…I don’t want to.”

      “But you have no viable alternative.” “I don’t care.”

      “That… doesn’t make any sense!” “Too bad.”

        I’d sooner kill myself from loneliness than become emotionally dependent on a soulless machine.

    If someone is, let’s say, “limited enough” for it to be a proper replacement for deep human interaction, then maybe it’s not so bad, idk. I haven’t met anyone like that yet, though, idk if they exist.

      That and not going so far that goes past* that point. Even if there would be the slightest benefit**, realism about AI as well as cost (or even hardware need/heat+data of local models) makes it easy to ignore/dismiss.

      * depression, isolation, personality disorders etc

      ** in a way some informational mascot or mental health app may be
