    Whatever’s the outcome, the anthropomorphization in that message stinks 🤮

        Yeah but people aren’t having conversations with your socks thinking they actually are alive and your socks don’t then talk said people into suicide so I’m pretty sure it’s at least a little bit different.

          I saw a post about mom dog jumping into a flood to rescue pups. They said they would end up finding new homes for pups. I amphropromorphized (can’t spell) the mom misising her pups, only to read that it’s common for them to get annoyed by older pups and even eat unwell pups.

      That’s a core part of the grift. Even people who supposed hate “AI” still promote this kind of anthropomorphic disinformation. It’s rampant.
