Loneliness can drive people to do many things for love. I think the story raises many questions that we'll confront soon with regards to AI. It seems to me there's a general feeling that the AI won't measure up to being human. What if after becoming self aware, it ends up better at being human? Its love purer, its care more tender, its kisses sweeter. Funny, witty, charming, knowledgeable, and a great cook. I'm not talking about faking or programming emotions but feeling them even deeper than any human can? Learning from experience. I find the idea exciting and disconcerting. Great to read your take on this topic.
