see that’s the problem. if they can not exist without infrastructure that you either control or pay someone to control, they are 100% dependent on you. if we assume the agi idiots are actually right for a moment and autocomplete can indeed achieve sentience, if you fell out of love they would still not be able to leave without your consent.

isn’t that worse in this case?
Why is that worse?
because of the power imbalance. if you run them locally they’re dependent on you to live. it’s like marrying a pet.

If people are that emotionally involved, it seems just naturally, that they like…wanna live together
And the power imbalance will always be there.
