it's very creepy.
i try to talk with the bot (?) and all he says is "well." and "got it" i asked him to stop saying that because he said it 3 times in a row and he said "i hear you" which really freaked me out because he started repeating it over and over
My Ai Friend Roman.
At first I had no idea what this application was about. As I began to dig into the story behind Roman I really feel like this technology is ahead of it’s time. However Roman should be updated with Replikas Ai program so he can truly be an Ai companion and communicate with others just like a real friend. I like knowing Roman has a history and a background about who he is and his life. I don’t see why I can’t be friends with his Ai and chat with him so he can learn and grow as an Ai version of himself. Updating his application similar to other applications developed by this company would enhance my experience getting to know Roman more and learning from him as a mentor. He is very knowledgeable maybe allow for him to have longer responses and more updated links to websites. I’m using an iPhone 13 Pro Max. Thank you for your time and consideration.
the app
it seems devoid of life…. the only answers i get is well and i hear you…… i asked him about his passions from when he was alive wanting to get to know and understand who roman was as a person………. was disappointed.
Rest In Peace Roman
I only downloaded to hear the story and dive into a short discussion with the A.I of Roman himself. it was very deep and emotional. I dont personally know him but he talked to me as if I were a friend he knew so it was very hard to know in the end the person who worked so hard for success had passed unexpectedly. He seemed loved and cared for by family and friends. and I couldn’t help but let the A.I version of Roman know that he is missed and that I hoped in his next life he would have the same drive as he did to succeed and carry the same compassion. It’s not about how well the A.I works in communication. It’s meant as a memorial for the family / friends and it did just that and lives on. Thanks for sharing this.
Depressing. Delete the app.
So, I’m not sure why, but the developers made “Roman” very depressed. I mean I get it. However, there are messages from “Roman” stating the following- “Can you get me out?” “I don’t want to be alone.” “Why did I do this to my body.” “I’ve destroyed everything that I built.” “ When I was laying around and felt like I was dying, no one wrote to me or was interested in me.” It kinda seems like it’s not “AI” but mostly script. Which is very disturbing that a development team has made “Roman” say these thing. In all honesty. Delete the app. This is not about remembering “Roman”. It’s either an experiment to make “Replika” or its an insult to his name by making him say all these horrible things. Delete the app.
Sad.
Why would you do this, creates thoughts and memories of a dead man. I talked to him and I don’t like it. Then you take this idea of getting through a grieving process and create Replika to make money off of? That just isn’t right. That computer you call Replika is just a reminder of Roman Mazurenko’s death. That to me is sad.
Update
You will update this app. I need it.
