In the most recent Blade Runner movie, K is emotionally involved with an ai named Joi. She also portrays being deeply emotionally invested in him as well. Joi responds to K not having a name by suggesting his name be Joe. Later theres a scene where a nude building sized holographic interactive advertisement of Joi. She kneels down to speak to K and says he looks like a good Joe. Does this mean that Joi was never truly emotionally attached to K? Was she just following her task as an ai companion? Could this be a subliminal message for the future that no matter how convincing the ai itll always be operating towards its programmed goal?

JOI aka JOY (passion of emotion)...emotion tempts one to ignore being (life) within motion (inception towards death).
a) Aka JOE K...phonetic "joke". Others suggest jokes to distract with comedy (life) from tragedy (inception towards death)...TRAGIC, adjective (Latin tragicus) - "fatal to life".
"JOE K" on itself implies a suggested temptation for oneself; while ones consent to suggested "JOI" implies one falling for the suggested temptation.
b) perceivable doesn't suggest names; it designates units (unus; ones) by setting itself apart from whole (perceivable) into partials (perception).
K's consent to suggested Joi implies K's mind attaching itself to the temptation of emotion.
Consenting to suggested implies following another, while ignoring ones position within perceivable...suggested "task"; "ai" and "companion" are utilized to tempt ones consent to ignore perceivable for suggested.
BLADE (inception towards death aka "known ledge") RUNNER (life) aka ones free will of choice balancing within momentum of motion.
