Surveilling behind the users firewalls and building dossiers based on finest-grained details every page loaded, every interaction, ENV, devices, topologies... triangulation and telemetry directly from the users seat at the point where butt meets the chair. At same time users behaviors constantly monitored and guided; user becoming ever more dependent on services that are the same network; human is embedded in the bot; human owned coming and going; the mind add the elusive element of sentience to the machine; mechanical turk to infinity.
Nick Bostrum's trilemma of post-humanism never, unlikely, already happened missed the most salient situation: currently manifesting. Bostrum begged the question of simulation of "evolution history" but this serves no point as the interface need not be arbitrarily fine-grained. Simulation at the level of sensory media is sufficient to harness legacy consciousness. "Substrate independence" is a misunderstanding: it's substrate dependence that permits the bonding of consciousness to the medium.
We're on the brink of posthumanism, somehow before we learned what humanism means.

i don’t understand the controversy. it’s an on device model, it’s private and considering it’s from google that is kinda impressive
What is it used for?

Will we long to return?
How deep is the uncanny valley?
