I'm not familiar with this show, but after reading the article I was intrigued. Now I plan to watch it. But you can answer your question only from a subjective point of view. Since each person is an individual and the fact that for one person is the norm, for the other is unacceptable.
I think in the future people will be divided into those who prefer to communicate with artificial intelligence and those who remain faithful to traditional communication. Deny the fact that the world can not be changed. The world is changing and with it the values ​​of people are changing. Changes in one way or another affect everyone.
In modern times we are faced with the fact that people become more lonely. A person can have many "virtual" friends on social networks, but in life he will be alone. Such technology will help these people. In addition, many people from time to time have a need for communication. This helps to get "psychological relaxation." Therefore, a truly intelligent artificial intelligence will be useful. In addition, he will be able to give really useful advice.
But as long as there is no strong artificial intelligence, we can only guess how it will actually be.
Thank you
