"AI Companion" is a bit like spouse. You are married to it in the long run, unless you decide to divorce it. Definitely TRUST is the basis of marrage, and it should be the same for AI models.
As in human marriage, there should be a law that said your AI-companion cannot be compelled to testify against you :-)
That's a noteworthy difference. Maybe AI only becomes truly "human" when it can't be reset. Maybe only then we can truly trust it - because it has the capability to betray us and yet it won't. (if it does then we don't trust it any more)
