"Can a Computer Fall in Love if It Doesn't Have a Body? Much has been written about Spike Jonze's Her, the Oscar-nominated tale of love between man and operating system. It's an allegory about relationships in a digital age, a Rorschach test for technology. It's also premised on a particular vision of artificial intelligence as capable of experiencing love.

Someone introduced me to a series called Black Mirror. Series 2, episode 1, "Be Right Back", covers an analogous situation where a computer simulates a woman's dead husband by using all his online communications. If you've not seen this series before I highly recommend it. Each episode is a independent, thought-provoking short story with insights into the impacts on society from the new technologies we're just starting to come to grips with. A must-see for geeks.
