    someone’s brain scan, and then they closed it and figured out it was really capable of doing AI type tasks

    Iirc ‘Black Mirror’ actually had an episode where a consciousness clone served as an electronic assistant to that very person. Minus the butt stuff, at least onscreen. But with some teledildonics, it would be like fucking oneself in the ass (not that it’s impossible right now).

      The episode is White Christmas, for reference, though there’s other episodes on the topic of consciousness in technology, one particularly notable episode is the black museum one, not sure what the name was.
