Imagine having to interact with this thing in an environment where it is in the power position.

Being in a prison with this voice as your guard seems like a horrible way to lose your sanity. This aggressive friendlyness combined with no real emotions seems like a very easy way to break people.

There are these stories about nazis working at concentration camps, having to drink an insane amount of alcohol to keep themselves going (not trying to excuse their actions). This thing would just do it, while being friendly at the same time. This amount of hopeless someone would experience if they happen to be in custody of a system like this is truly horrific.
