Add in that it only works for us in conditions that approximate Earths atmosphere.

If you could hear music on the surface of Mars without a space suit, I’m pretty sure it would sound quite different.

If you live in the UK Lloyds bank give it to you for free.

There isn’t really anything good on there, they don’t have AAA series.

Simple answer is power, look at how things have changed since Musk bought the largest communication platform on the planet. Look at who's backing him and what they want.

The UK's stance goes right against the values and goals these billionaires want and that's basically to do whatever they want without recourse. What better way to sow diversion than to stoke civil unrest and cause change to the systems that stand in their way.

I actually had a college run over by a bus on the way to work in London, was very lucky and made a full recovery.

Head poking out under the main exit of the bus.

Yeah the case is quite terrifying.

It reminds me of an episode of Star Trek TNG, if memory serves correct there were loads of episodes about a crew member falling for a hologram dec character.

Given that there’s a loneliness epidemic I believe tech like this could have a wide impact on peoples mental health.

I stronger believe AI should be devoid of any personality and strictly return data/information then frame its responses as if you’re speaking to another human.
