Virtual girlfriend comes to life

Hong Kong-based Artificial Life has created a virtual girlfriend that it hopes to make available for users of 2.5G, 2.75G and 3G phones. Named "Vivienne Rose," she will flirt, chat and argue with subscribers, who will be able to call up panoramic views of her on the screens of their handsets. Continue to pages two through seven of this gallery for more images of Vivienne and her life.

Is this an early April Fool's Day Joke?

Humanity has sunk to a new low. Enough said.

The idea is interesting however....

This sounds so much like just a newer version of Bonzi Buddy. We all know how that crap infected our computers.

Craziest brilliant marketing ploy I've seen since the Pet Rock. I never bought or gave anyone one of those, either, but a lot of people did. Just the thing for the fellows we all know who are married to their computers--but what happens when the computer gets jealous of Vivienne? Actually, I don't even want to imagine the poor souls who might buy this.

Instead, I am starting work immediately on the process of stealing her identity, getting her arrested for bad checks, and setting up a great lawsuit on her behalf against the credit bureau and ChoicePoint for invasion of privacy, defamation, and unauthorized editing. Only real worry is how to collect attorney's fees after she gets arrested for the other virtual girl's bad checks in her name, but figure there is a solution to htat out there on the Web somewhere.

I know lots of people who aren't real. What's the big deal?
