I know we’re all supposed to be dunking on this for being “cringe” or whatever but honestly what’s the harm? It’s an object and if it brings people joy that’s their business not mine.

A photo of your gf is actually you trapping her in a little rectangular prison, you misogynistic bastard.

Oh CES. You always bring out the weirdest, zaniest, most unhinged ideas and put them center stage. And I love you for it.

Not the product.....this is fucking disturbing.

"Look what they need to mimic a fraction of our power" - every autistic person ever.

Seriously, I'm just surprised there are people who both need this and haven't already trained their imagination to do better without pictures and text generators.

This would be sick if it could tie into Replika AI as a mini desktop companion.
