[QUOTE="GGWP, post: 7411, member: 93"] Whether free will exists or not hasn't been solved in living organisms. The brain demonstrates a complex interplay of phenomena that could throw a wrench into traditional deterministic interpretations of consciousness; the brain processes analogue, nonlinear stimulus compared to the digital, linear dynamics of a deep learning algorithm (there are also poorly-understood instances of quantum coherence and nonlocality in living organisms). AI is not designed to seek patterns but is an algorithm permutated until patterns are trained into it, it's not capable of spontaneous learning in the same way that humans are, it's certainly not conscious at all (unless you subscribe to the IIT view of data clusters having 'consciousness'.) When an AI speaks like a human it's because scientists have fed 10 gazillion gigabytes of text and speech into it, the AI identifies notable peaks and ridges of this data, extracts the features and produces an output with probablistically similar peaks and ridges. No doubt AI will revolutionise the world by 2030 or so but you are thinking of it in an overly anthropromorphized way, deep learning networks are like a magic pattern algorithm, like a magical tome that you can gain knowledge from but it's not alive, conscious or sentient. When you're speaking to an anime ai gf, you're speaking to a magical tome that you've asked 'what responses would x character give if I say y?' When you are speaking to a real human you're speaking to a biological system so mind-bogglingly complex that on a fundamental level we really don't understand that much about the body. Much of the biosciences only exist to peddle sham pharmaceuticals, genetics is not nearly as well understood as biological determinists and engineers would have you believe; on a fundamental level nobody really understands how the brain works anyway.
