Ironheart promotes AI besties and I think it's kinda dangerous
Briefly

Ironheart, a Marvel series, explores the nature of artificial intelligence through Riri Williams, who revives her late friend Natalie using advanced AI. This resurrection, however, brings to light existential questions that blur the lines between life and artificiality, reminiscent of themes in classic sci-fi literature. While the show tries to boost AI's image, it fails to address the real-life ramifications as people increasingly form emotional bonds with AI representations of deceased loved ones, which raises significant ethical and societal concerns.
In Ironheart, the young hero Riri Williams resurrects her friend Natalie through AI, raising existential questions about the nature of being human.
While sci-fi has long explored AI companions, the reality presents serious ethical concerns, especially with AI’s role in our emotional lives and society.
