> Minutes later, a different child tells the same kind of toy that she’s smarter than it and calls it fake. The toy responds with warmth every time, the same way it responds to nearly everything

Is there not a difference between a teddy bear, with which the child explores its navigation of the world with dummies largely on his own mental effort, and a super-Eliza, with which the "warmth" is really not there and substantially inappropriate?
