OMGGGG... You are AI-obsessed. Please define AI! In case you don't know, even the game Pong from 100 years ago had AI. Why all of a sudden you got obsessed ? Because it got into public culture as a meme, and since you lack own personality, you just adopted that meme because you think it makes you look cool ? Sure, in the eyes of people just like you. But in the eyes of the few lucid people, you look like a clown.
