There are also the companies producing or providing the AI. Any entity capable of producing a convincing AI fashion substitute can do much more besides, some possibly not wearing well with public opinion.

I'm reminded of the (aweful) film Simone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simone_(2002_film)), and a Ben Bova novel (possibly Starcrossed) in which CGI gradually replaces human actors.

To clarify, in my original post, not was supposed to be now, as in "I'm now envisioning"

Lots of typos for me today... :/

Right, I realised that.

Am also agreeing with you and extending the notion. AI is by no-means outrage-proof.

Sure, your comment didn't look like it was trying to disagree as much as add more info, whether you realized I had a typo or not. I had just happened to read a comment I had mangled atrociously earlier because I did it on my phone and then I saw this comment, and the urge to correct myself here was overwhelming. :)

I feel that urge. Soft-keyboards, and HN's edit window, are treacherous.
