Have you seen "the good place" ? There is a hilarious part where "janet", their omnipotent and omniscient anthropomorphic IA - with basically no concept of suffering - triggers a defense mechanism where she pretends she is scared to die.

Haha, I haven't seen that before, but that scene really piqued my interest.

The first season is complete, on netflix, and have a non disapointing ending. The season 2 is running. Nice "feel good" show overall.
