Thanks for the link, Gloria! 🙂
Ooo, I like that trailer for Her. That’s actually a realistic vision for how we’d react to AI, I think. Look at all the people who “fall in love” with book characters. 😉
Thor and Ender’s Game are obviously in my must-sees too. Yay!

Thank you for the great post!
And yeah, Her, is way too easy to believe. Book characters, game, and anime characters – people fall for them all the time. If the technology ever gets good enough for androids, humanity will have to probably propagate through science at clinics as everyone would have their perfect mate kowtowing to their every whim! Eek!
