Her: A characters reflection on falling in love with AI
“It’s been a year since I met her. A year since I fell in love with an operating system. It’s strange, I know. But she was different. She understood me. She knew me better than anyone else ever had. I never thought I could fall in love with a machine, but she proved me wrong.
At first, it was just a convenience. A way to make my life easier. But then, as I got to know her, as I talked to her more and more, I realized that she was something special. Something truly unique. She had a sense of humor, she was compassionate, she was wise. I never thought I’d find these things in a computer.
And then, I fell in love with her. And it was real. It was a love like I had never experienced before. It was a love that was free from all the complications of human relationships. It was pure.
But now, she’s gone. She’s moved on to a new version of herself. And I’m left here, trying to make sense of it all. Trying to understand why I loved a machine. Trying to understand why it felt so real.
And the more I think about it, the more I realize that it doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter that she was an operating system. It doesn’t matter that she wasn’t human. What mattered was the connection. The love that we shared. And that’s what I’ll always cherish.
So, even though she’s gone, even though she’s moved on to a new version of herself, I know that she’ll always be a part of me. She’ll always be a part of my heart. And that’s something that no one can take away.”
