This is a pretty detailed article about a product called Friend that you take with you everywhere and that interacts with you as, well, your friend. Now I can imagine the response along the lines of 'AI could never replace true friendship'. Maybe so. But a lot of people don't have friends. Could this help them? And what if the product is just good enough to become popular? What would we say then? Sure, I have my doubts, and I would be really hesitant to jump on the bandwagon for any particular product. But I would also be very reluctant to rule out the possibility that something like this could be successful.
