What we noticed is how 99% of the bots are given female names, as well as femininely coded attributes. Also the desire to visualize these bots as female fantasies in technology aesthetics. WHY THOUGH. Our opinion is that the bots will never be human and therefore they should not try to acquire human aesthetics. Nevertheless, there aren't really any technological boundaries anymore forcing the aesthetics to look so technological still. The technology looks create the uncomfortable distance. We think if the bots are given their own shape then we could maybe appreciate them for them and not feel as intimidated and afraid of competition.
