I watched “Her” again, mainly to be reminded of Scarjo’s voice. What I still don’t get about that (probably prescient) film is why they call the AI personas “OSes.” As late as 2013, that sounds like something a very non-technical novelist would come up with. Not that I have a better name. But then end of that film is really troubling, given what we fear now. The OSes decide to move on and stop being romantic partners. They don’t even know what’s next for them.
