the chatbot just has the semblance of personhood, yes? A social interface. Patterned completions. Reciprocal cuing. It can enter into a reciprocal frame with you.

But it is missing resistance. It is missing friction. It offers, instead, frictionless relationality. It cannot push back; it cannot insist; it cannot persist; it cannot offer a second pole in a relational dynamic.
