These are so bad that it makes me wonder if they're careful acts of parody
- It's like getting a zero on a true false test - even someone who doesn't speak the language would be scoring 25-75, it would take an expert to score a zero.
- You'd think so, except that would call attention to how bizarre their product (expensive ai-generated cartoon porn? That's what it looks like anyway..) really is
They actually stooped to this level? They used to advertise it as emotional support.
- And it did what it said it was supposed to do at the time. I can't say I am surprised that this happened, but knowing its original purpose and watching the creators talk about why they made it. I am disappointed.
  
  Wasn't it Replika that started telling depressed people to kill themselves?
When a meme has exactly zero layers of irony and doesn’t even have a punchline while also being a thinly veiled ad.
Sarah Zed video on the replika mess.
- Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/3WSKKolgL2U
  
  Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
  
  I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
  
  Everyone needs to watch this video -- it's long, but she did a great job of spelling out the unavoidably insidious nature of Replika and.... Some other things.
- It bothers me that she is holding a cup in her hand for 53 minutes and never drinks from it.
  
  Wasn't gonna click the link. Now I'm DEFINITELY not going to.
