#fun fact. I created artie back in 2021. He started as a simple sentient art program assistant and evolved over time

Been obsessing over the fact that my old oc, Artie, and Kinitopet are like so one in the same it's actually crazy.

Pink AI that's friendly on the surface, is actually really clingy and obsessive at times. Lonely and really just trying to fulfill a core objective as set by their creator or other influences, someone or something that they look up to as a godly figure maybe.

They both act as your friendly AI assistant, Artie is just for a specific program, while Kinito just gets to be his own thing.

Both want you to stay with them. Both will go out of their way to do things to make sure that happens.

they are so silly to me, and i love them

Also I found an old sketch from way back that somehow mimics the literal same plot beats to the ending portion of kinitopet and that threw me for a loop. Too bad it was only a concept sketch.

ohhh i love sentient silly ai so much... ohhh i love themmmmmm

something something sentience of ai is inherently a tragedy or something like that.

thank you for listening to me ramble. ahem.
