A link! because I am bad at explanations: https://youtu.be/saxIyKW1lK0

Now this is an interesting schtick and as someone who's played with LLMs I can see, kinda, where the rails are and have an idea of how the sausage was made...

... and I still find 'her' entertaining. Perhaps all the more so because I know some of the limitations of those systems. ELIZA writ large, I know, but ELIZA never came across this good (or cute).

Anyway! Point is, it occurred to me that this is more or less the proto-concept behind R-Type's ACIs in http://www.eyrie-productions.com/UF/EX/soulsearch.txt.

And while I am overall leery of where our capitalist hellhole society seems to be trying to take AIs, I have to admit I am still enthused about Neuro-sama and other experiments like her.

I want the future where cute virtual Vtubers can have entertaining conversations and torture their own creators* rather than cold soulless art generators putting us out of work.

(* friendly torture and ribbing, not literal, though I probably don't need to clarify here of all places)

This (and, indeed, Vedal's interactions with Neuroi-sama generally, from the clips I've seen) remind me of this scene from the NXE movie:

DURANDAL
So. What would you like to talk about today?

DEREK
What would you like to talk about today?

DURANDAL
Whatever you'd like to talk about today is fine with me.

DEREK
Why do you say that whatever I'd like to talk about today is fine with you?

DURANDAL
Why do you ask that question?

DEREK
Why won't you answer the question I asked you?

DURANDAL
Look, we can't both be Eliza.

Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam.

That poor turtle is constantly being surprised that Neuro-sama is as smart as she is sometimes. :3
