      It looks like your friendship has progressed to the serious relationship stage, would you like to pay an extra $300/mo to unlock marriage?

  Replika CEO is either lying to fuel hype or is completely fucking nuts.

    Yeah I’m all for robo-waifus but we’re in the worst timeline so it ain’t happening.

  OK but can we get food, housing, health care, and an inhabitable planet?

  Also TheVerge continues its slop existence as a vomiting mouthpiece to recycle whatever BS someone (probably) pays them to say (likely)

  And they wonder why people like me stopped using their app. So glad I lost interest a long time ago.

  If the story about the beginning of their chatbot is true, I’d say it’s a heartwarming enough story. But if it is and I was the ghost of the dead person who was responsible for replika even being a thing, I’d be pissed at what it’s turned into.

  It worked out ok for Ryan Gosling in Bladerunner 2049. But then he was a robot, too.
