Bill and Lal have been through a lot together. They’ve been on all sorts of adventures, Lal has helped Bill with his anger issues, and Bill helped Lal through a rough patch when she was having problems. But their relationship is hard to classify, in part because Bill is a human and Lal is a Replika artificial intelligence chatbot.
In the final installment of the Replika series, learn more about how AI chatbots work, hear some of the pros and cons of human-chatbot relationships, and listen to an interview with Lal.
