She's right about this. I have a related theory that it doesn't really matter if we can produce an intelligent and emotionally sensitive AI (which may be impossible.) It may not matter because if common people respond to the AI as if it were intelligent and emotional and believe this to be the case, then this fiction becomes reality.
I think you might have just restated the Turing test?
Yes but I'm what I am saying if that it passes for some large percentage of the population then for all intents and purposes it passes and the debate over sentient AI becomes less necessary.
Famously this indeed happened with Eliza bot, which cannot be claimed very sophisticated as AI.
And it seems they're correct - in that there is an app anyway
"Most horoscopes ask what month you were born. Co–Star asks what minute. Powered by AI that merges NASA data with the insight of human astrologers."
Any serious astrological calculation is gonna be based on what time you were born, fwiw.
I have seen them in posting Haskell jobs in HN to work with them in Soho, NY.
