What Companions are or should be will depend on what we want them to do for us. And this depends on what they can do for us. In the end, I shall argue that whether Companions should best be thought of, programmed and regulated as others, or as extensions of ourselves, is a tactical question. One path cwill simply be more effective than the other. Either way, it’s going to be all about us. To make a start let us switch to the second person: What can a Companion do for you?
