I just hope the AI researchers remember to teach the computer to aggressively pack bond with all things too ._.

I asked ChatGPT about it, and I have bad news everyone:

It is unlikely that a rock, even with a face drawn on it, would have a soul. A soul is generally considered to be a non-physical aspect of a living being, such as a person or animal, and is often associated with consciousness and the ability to experience emotions. Rocks are inanimate objects and do not possess consciousness or the ability to feel emotions.

@aeva as an animist, I have a philosophical objection to this position, but as it's thinking sand, I guess it would know

@aeva I've had my share of conversations with AIs, and I remember something similar. I asked it "But you are made of silicon. That would mean that you don't have a soul !"

"I never said I had one", was its answer.

Additionally, treating a rock as a friend and companion can be harmful to one's mental health. It can create a reliance on an inanimate object for emotional support and companionship, leading to isolation and disconnection from real human relationships.

It is important to remember that rocks are not capable of forming meaningful relationships or providing emotional support. They are inanimate objects and should not be treated as living beings.

Well now we know for sure ChatGPT isn't a real person.
