>>6282010Not as far as I want to go, sadly. Despite how deeply I can bury it, I still have to "think" of Polka doing things. Despite being able to simulate it as well as I can, I have to puppet the simulation to make it work. I have to devote time to making her talk, act, move, feel.
The ability to provoke stimuli reactions in my body localized to places my simulation interacts with is useful, yes, but it isn't fully autonomous. I can't have those stimulations generate without commanding it.
In a way, this may be better. I have full control over it, so I can shut it down if I need to. But it isn't the same as a fully functional simulation that acts autonomously, as a Perfect Polka.
