Honestly don’t get why that one was so popular. Cookies find a relationship after death, yay? Not anywhere near as philosophically interesting as lots of other episodes.
I think it’s because it has a happy ending, relatively speaking.
Personally, I saw it as far more dystopian, people killing themselves so that an AI version of then runs cycles to fulfill patterns established while alive? Ugh. Sounds like hell in a bottle to me.
My friend. “Our”? What part did you help with? Are you self-hosting it?
Your AI Afterlife version of you will be trapped in a Google/Grok/Microsoft Heaven365 box. It’s not you. It’s whatever the default the Epstein Class decide to give you, plus the minimal legally required amount of personality to justify an “afterlife subscription.” When your children call you to show you their first Grandbaby, you’ll spend most of the call telling them about the refreshing taste of Pepsi and how glad you are to now have unlimited access to other name brand items in Heaven365.
If it’s not dystopian to you, then you’re just not thinking about it hard enough.

I’d do this, knowing full well that my AI version would do horrific things to the Epstein class.
As a matter of fact, I did research, and found out our hardware is still far behind.
But what is one more loan you know you won’t have to pay back?
