(18,670 posts)I wonder if the AI will continue to stay polite after interacting with humans over a period of time. I can just see them going rogue because human beings can be the rudest assholes to deal with. After working customer service and my last tech support job and now this Trumpist bullshit, Ive acquired a deep dislike for the human race. Hopefully AI computers are much more resilient.
