    I'll edit my comment. I meant... the AI generates a real time stream of 3d model seems just like a person.

      I mean maybe but asside from scamming lonely men in very cynical, depressing and downright evil schemes to make them think they have AI girlfriends there isn't much use for it

        AI friends or companions. Rig it up to some consumer grade Boston Dynamics bot in 10 years and you got yourself a droid. That could be kinda cool.

            Depends how many real friends you have.

            If the robotics are good enough I think a robotic Valet/Lady's maid would be useful. It's almost impossible to get into a lot of the historic costumes I sew alone and my girlfriend isn't always there to help.

              yes robots to do housework would be cool. But anthropomorphising them would just be weird and creepy.

                Eh, I anthromophise inanimate and semi-animate objects all the time. My car has a name, my computer has a name. I curse the godess of the light switch every time a bulb blows. I understand how it could develop pathologically for some people, though.

                Of course this will be used entirely for evil though. Imagine the boot stamping on your face has an adorable Hello Kitty voice, forever.

                  I meant it would be weird to make the robots that we use for household chores seem like people. If they were people they would be slaves. So it's way less uncomfortable for them to be clearly just machines that perform household tasks which is what they are anyway

                    Oh yeah. I'm pretty sure robotics is 30 years off a human analogue at least. I was meaning more semi-human personalities like Alexa/Siri. "Robot Jeeves" personalities that are enough to form some attachment to but clearly characters and not uncanny valley human.
