Well let's see what AI Ozzy has to say:
- totally, fucking lit, oh yeah babe
Checks out. Pretty sure real Ozzy would have said something similar. Turing test is approved.
“Hey Ozzy, how do you feel about Sharon milking your memory for all it’s worth?”
undecipherable nonsense
My god. It's uncanny!
Worth remembering that this is a story about an AI company preying on the emotional vulnerability of an elderly widow.
Sharon was the brains behind Ozzy. Milking him for profit was why she was the real bread winner of the family. Ozzy would love it.
And their son, who should know better.
Nah bro she was always a money hungry piece of shit and ozzy was cool with that.
I suspect that it was this way because he knew exactly that he would have died long ago from his drug abuse if it weren't for her. That she was good at using him so they could pay their bills was just an extra.
Yeah I mean at that age she probably can't really tell the difference between this technology and any other, it's like something from the Sharper Image catalog or some shit. I guess I can see how older folks could get caught up in it. But you have to take a step back from the novelty sometimes.
If the AI can't do drugs, is he even a rock star? Can he trash a hotel room or bang questionably aged groupies?
they need a guy to periodically tase the server
I personally wish it was her milking it cynically. I’m more thinking the woman has a very difficult time letting go, and this is very unhealthy in nature.
Or she could be milking it. 🙃
That shit is more dark than anything the Prince of Darkness himself ever sang or costumed about.
Oh my god this is ghoulish.
can we kindly and respectfully ask sharon to go to a retirement home and pick up knitting or bingo or something and revoke her internet access
And what does Kelly think about this abomination?
Mysteriously, it also supports noted fascist Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon.

With everything going on.. I forgot Ozzy died. I googled it to be sure. I think id ask him, "what snorting ants is like"
Its not something I'd ever try myself and wonder if the stings or the folic acid contained in ants is worse.
That being said I don't care to ask it anything.
hey i saw that before
Be Right Back - Black Mirror... it wasn't supposed to be a documentary. it wasn't supposed to be a documentary. it wasn't supposed to be a documentary it wasn't supposed to be a documentary it wasn't supposed to be a documentary it wasn't supposed-
"Finally we've invented the Torment Nexus from that super popular book 'Don't invent the Torment Nexus'"
The point of satire is it's supposed to mirror reality, this is literally what they were mocking.
Holograms of dead celebrities have been a thing for at least a decade.
it wasn't satire, it was a warning of what could happen if you mix (at the time) sci-fi technology with human psychology
holograms of celebrities were a thing sure, but they said one liners or pre-recorded phrases. here we are talking about an AI that mimics a person's speech being put in a hologram that will probably also use AI to mimic behaviours
Ozzy, why is your wife such a feckless cunt?
Lol that black mirror episode was a little on the nose here.
truly a
situation
Ew.
