      Ani = weird goth waifu
      Rudi = fascist AI agent of chaos

      At least they’ve kept them separate… kind of.

    Does anyone else find it ironic that the employees were hesitant to do this? I’m sure many of them have their reasons for working that job. But it seems funny when AI is built off of stolen data, and then the employees are like “hey wait a minute, though. Don’t use my data.”
