Watching Pluto on Netflix rn. Years ago, I wrote a short story on the exact same premise and the exact same idea of what makes an AI pass the turing's test for reals. And it's a testament to the fundamental difference between how men think v how women think or atleast me as a woman thinks that for the series the litmus test was ability to commit murder and for me it was empathy. Lmao. I just can't help but laugh at this irony. Fuck. 

I gotta dig that story out someday, it was one of the best premises I had come up with and I do love it. 

I like a few elements of this show though... But their take on ai is simply flawed, it's like someone without actual understanding tried to write it. The entire philosophical thinking angle for a lot of the bots is just wrong. Aberrations like that just leave me annoyed slightly lol. But okay creative liberty.
