Description

Here's a detailed description of the comic:

Panel 1: A character with orange hair and a light beard says, "I’ve created a new piece of software that tells me what I want." Opposite him, a character with gray hair and a beard looks skeptical and replies, "That’s not possible."

Panel 2: The orange-haired character confidently explains, "It's easy. It looks at previous actions, then determines what my preferences are. When presented with a new situation, it instantly outputs the correct behavior." The other character looks intrigued but still skeptical.

Panel 3: The gray-haired character responds, "Behavior isn't the same as preferences, you dunce," with a frown.

Panel 4: The orange-haired character looks taken aback, processing the response.

Panel 5: An illustration shows a close-up of a hand holding a phone with text on the screen that reads, "Result: Feel bad. Say nothing."

Panel 6: The conversation continues, with the gray-haired character asking, "You okay?" The orange-haired character looks a bit down but tries to smile and says, "Sure."

This comic humorously explores the difference between behavior and preference in a conversational and relatable manner.
