I'm about to make an AI powered BonziBuddy. (just kidding that would be disgraceful)

But seriously though, these AI companion apps are really reminiscent of the "desktop assistant" things which never took off. Also how Microsoft is trying to push copilot directly into Windows. It's BonziBuddy all over again.

    I actually had a crazy dream last night that a family member bought a new apartment and it was next to a giant data center buzzing. The funny thing was they said in the dream that it wasn't going to be there for long anyway, so they bought the place at a huge discount because people didn't want it.
