@cosminbaluta that's gross. This might seem super weird but it's not sad. How is speaking with (and even building a relationship) with a virtual person much different than having a pet dog?

Definitely agree with @rrhoover. It's also a perfect product for Japan, which sees a lot of lonely salarymen, in need of companionship. There are plenty of suicides there out of loneliness. This is a direction in which everyone might have someone waiting for them home

@dmndhn Yea, I hear it now that I listen to it more carefully. Sounds like this kind of:
