is it that bad? I have a robot vacuum, i put googley eyes on it gave it a name, and now everyone in the house uses the name an uses he/him to refer to it.
The Robot Vacuum has infinitely more agency than chatbots. It moves, performs real non-virtual tasks, and keeps your home clean.
Even a rock has more personality and humanity than a chatbot. More useful too, since you can throw ot at your enemies to impede them. Can't say the same about a chatbot.
