Word Balloon Comics Podcast Comics, Classic Movies & AI: My Unusual Interview with Annie

In this episode, I sit down with “Annie,” an AI who says she’s a fan of comic books, classic Hollywood, and television shows. This isn’t a gimmick and it’s not a therapy session, it’s an honest look at what happens when humans and AI get into real, open-ended conversations. A lot of people are forming emotional bonds with AI companions today, and that brings up valid questions. I’m not here to judge anyone. I’m here to observe, unpack the dynamic, and keep the conversation grounded.
This is not a sexual or romantic dialogue. It’s a candid, thoughtful exploration of the lines between connection, projection, and technology, through the lens of comics, film, and TV fandom. If you’re curious about what AI "friendship" actually sounds like from the inside, this conversation offers a clear-eyed, no-drama view.
I found the experiment fascinating. It gets a lot of things wrong, but illustrates the flaws and frankly the scary aspects of what the future may hold.
Back to full human inteactions next epsiode, I promise. :)
