I completely agree. And it's funny you bring up the old timey sailors with their lady ships, because that was my first thought when people started calling ai s/he. Those sailors grieved a loss of a loved one when their ships sank, and now people are doing the same thing with these LLMs, and, of course, the corpos are encouraging this. It's messed up.
