Elijah bot
Elijah bot
Plural: Unknown
This is an old Elijah bot, a second-generation computer therapist tool. Significantly more advanced than the original Eliza system, it still had a tendency to assume everything you wanted to talk about involved your family hating you.
The humanoid shape was supposed to make conversations feel more natural, but unfortunately technology put Elijah right in the middle of the uncanny valley, so it just made things worse. This particular bot is fully functional, and is certainly uncannily uncanny.

When Used
If you don't have the understudy skill:
Your sidekick learns a role: Psychoanalyst.
If you already have the understudy skill:
Despite the fact a good therapist will encourage you to rehash the same material over again for years, ironically your sidekick doesn't seem particularly interested in repeating the training process a second time. I wonder why that is?
