Here's what many would presume is a light-hearted and silly fluff-piece that could be treated in two ways.
1. The pathetic state of young adults perceptions of their reality today.
2. The small subtle steps of accepting artificial intelligence on an equal footing in order to tax companies
that use such technologies rather than employ taxable humans.

Saudi Arabia -the bastion of equal rights, recently made Sophia a citizen of the kingdom ahead of kafala
(migrant) workers who've been living in Saudi all their lives and isn't required to wear an abaya or veil.
Sophia is a robot built to look like a female human.

Now we have a human marrying what basically amounts to a torch, let's just hope his hand is up to the job
on his wedding night.

Man, 35, reportedly marries computer hologram.

'Surrounded by nearly 40 people, a 35-year-old man reportedly married a virtual hologram earlier this month.
Akihiko Kondo, who works at a middle school in Japan, wed Hatsune Miku, a hologram that was created by
a computer as singing software, on Nov. 4, Reuters reported Wednesday.



The hologram, which takes the form of a teen performer, “is a singing voice synthesizer featured in over
100,000 songs,” according to an online description from Crypton Future Media, the company whose program
the character is modeled on, Reuters reported.

The company did not immediately return Fox News’ request for comment.

While acknowledging the traditional path to marriage, Kondo said he feels “the shape of happiness and love
is different for each person.” “There definitely is a template for happiness, where a real man and woman get
married, have a child and live all together. But I don’t believe such a template can necessarily make everyone
happy,” Kondo told Reuters.

Both Kondo, whose parents were not present at the wedding, and his new bride each have wedding rings,
according to the outlet. A doll that resembles the bride reportedly wears the hologram’s ring.

The groom requested a marriage registration form from Gatebox, a technology company that last year offered
the documents for those who wanted to marry computer-generated personas, Reuters said.
However, the weddings reportedly do not have any legal grounds.

Since the ceremony, Kondo told Reuters that people have reached out to him, “saying they were encouraged,”
he told the outlet. “I think it was nice to have this wedding for that reason.”...'

These people are mentally ill, we also had the woman who married a Ghost! and now we have this Freak marrying a Hologram 

Just think of the Strangeness going on out there in the World that isn't being reported!!

   I give up.  

It's one thing to be mentally ill, but it's another for the people in charge to allow this type of behavior to take place and be splattered in public media where people will have their mind seeded that this type of behavior is okay and "normal". 
Our youth will probably think this is the coolest thing ever; they are very impressionable.
