I get the feeling you are deliberately misrepresenting my point here, but okay. Put another way- why do you want to be rude to Bubbles?
Is it cold in here?:
Being decent to the person in front of you is usually a good thing to put on top of your worry list.
QC world is post-Singularity. There's no need to guess the intentions of AIs. Now that they run the world, QC people can simply look at their actions.

It is a very serious issue, potentially genocidally serious, and transcends Bubbles hurt feelings. I'm being somewhat meta here, things will be fine in the comic because it's a comic, but if the comic has any connection to our potential future we're talking about potential human extinction.

It could've been worse. Bubbles could've been stuck talking to a philosophy student. Those people will bore you to death.
But seriously, I can understand why Bubbles is irritated since no one really wants their existence scrutinized and summarized into one thesis statement, but I would think she'd keep in mind the person who's writing this isn't using their research to justify an anti-AI political agenda.
Perhaps Evie was tone deaf which tends to happen in academia, but at the end of the day she means well.

I've never been invited to tea and crumpets. :(
Tea and scones, yes.
And I'll just make a general remark that it is clear to me that Bubbles would be perfectly happy to have a discussion about AIs in society, just not with someone who speaks about the topic without empathy and as though it is a purely academic conversation that affects no-one.
