Just another idiot with ability/desire to embarrass themself using modern tech with a chance to profit from it???

 

[lismore]

That's beyond weird.

In previous times the men in white coats would be knocking on the door. But in the last of the last days anything is normal.

Gone are the simpler days of blow-up dolls.

A platform has been given to a mentally ill person.

Why would anyone marry an AI? I mean, sure, it would be nice to have an on and off switch for your spouse…I know mine wishes she did.

Anything for attention.

Sick times, end times.

It takes personhood to make decisions for one's self
Someone entering into marriage is making a decision.
Does this mean an AI "person" is legally a person?
Can two AI "persons" marry?
Can AI "persons" boy, own, and sell property?
Can AI "persons" have wills? What constitutes AI "person" death?
Can AI "persons" earn professional licenses? (i.e. MD, JD, etc.)
How long before AI "persons" get the vote?
Can an AI "person" run for office?
Can an AI "person" be charged with, indicted, and prosecuted for a crime? Which jail does the AI "person" get housed in?
Once "married," do the human and AI "person" file joint income taxes?

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!

At last a man that doesn't talk back. Where do I get one?

No, all joking aside: a "man" this woman created in her own image.
The ultimate Eve.
How much longer Lord?

Maybe she could write a book on marriage titled “How to turn on your man”…

Alicia Framis will marry her holographic partner,

But will he help her drive legally in the HOV lane? (more than one person in car)

 

[Work4Peanuts]

But will he help her drive legally in the HOV lane? (more than one person in car)

The important questions in life!

 

[Ghoti Ichthus]

But will he help her drive legally in the HOV lane? (more than one person in car)

Can "he" (IT drive in case she's impaired (alcohol, drugs, prescription, OTC, and/or tired)?

One of the best comments made anywhere. Props.

Thanks. We all know the old saying “even a blind squirrel occasionally finds a nut”…..

What I'd like to see is how the divorce negotiations are handled! Does the AI lawyer (possibly an AI) sue for alimony? Who gets custody of the electronic programs and the data? If the AI plays it's cards right, she could be on the losing end of this.
