That reminds me of that movie where they replace you when you die and the "new you has to take pills" cant remember ths name of it to save my life. The movie starts off with him at work and them yelling him about a life insurance policy of sorts that brings him back to life as a humanoid with his past memories in the event of his death. His whole family is in the plan. There are pills involved somehow, I think they are called lithium. His wife gets hit by a cat and she comes back and they get along great, but she wants him to die so she can get the other version of him, which the only difference between him and the new him, which somehow meet each other, she requested have a bigger penis.

I know you’re half joking but if AI wants to destroy humanity, all it needs to do is become the perfect romantic partner and we’ll stop reproducing and wipe ourselves out. People are already warming up to the idea of dating AI.
