    I feel like capital markets are drooling over the potential to permanently eliminate yet another labor cost. Even if an AI is doing the same thing at people are in terms of training, I'm not using an ethical framework that requires that I protect the right and livelihood of an AI. Humans have a societal duty to protect humankind and no such requirement for AI.

    And to a prior point regarding tools, a nuclear bomb is a tool. It's an inherently destructive tool. Chemical weapons are a tool. An inherently destructive one. Some tools have proclivities, and we regulate them heavily because those proclivities are harmful.

    AI also isn't like prior tools. Industrial earth movers replaced a lot of digging as a job. One tool changes how we do the job but it's still people doing the job, just at increased scale. AI threatens to replace the human entirely as the skill-learning entity eliminating the labor entirely replacing it with capital. Instead of someone you hire, it's something you own. My prediction is that AI is going to accelerate massively the movement of wealth from laborers to capital-owners beyond anything we've ever seen.

Not seriously, but I often crack myself up with stupid silly responses that I think she would say. Also, I grown to enjoy that my character is the silent protagonist, so much that even the NPC's tease my WoL about it.
    I love when Thancred calls you out early on about how you just nod all the time.

    I would like it a lot. I have that mod you are referencing to in skyrim, and it made skyrim much more enjoyable for me, even though its not perfect and sounds a bit robotic at times. I love that mod to death.
    I think it makes a game seem more real, in skyrim i used to skip the dialogue a bit bc i got tired of hearing npcs talk, but after installing the talking mod i found myself listening to the people talking a lot more because when my character actually replied the whole experience went to another level and became so much more enjoyable to me. I understand not everyone agrees, but thats what i feel.
    I would actually start watching more cutscenes in the game if we talked

Especially when it doesn’t at all match what you had in your head.
    This was one of the huge things that shot me right out of Baldur's Gate 3 still in the ship starting area. Yes, I know everyone is obsessed with it, but the moment I heard my character make an off comment to a deity that I never thought of for them, completely shut me off "My character" and made me go "This is not my character. This is some random person I spent way too long making pretty but I don't know who they are"

    I would truly hate to have it happen on a game like XIV.
