(article CW: brief discussion of the morality of rape of human-seeming robots)

This article is absolutely important to read, today, If you'd like to see a frank discussion of what the recent proliferation of "Intelligent" chatbots means for us as humans. All the way to the end. I promise. (and, as always, I'm happy to explain confusing tech concepts if there's something you don't understand, friends!! (disclaimer: I am not a linguist; I'm a dyslexic mono-lingual nerd, please have mercy ;) )) It's about Computational Linguistics, and humanity, and morality, and just... things everyone should be thinking about right now.

what a great article that i'm glad to have taken the jump to read amongst all the "person with no relevant knowledge or intellectual, philosophical or moral curiosity regurgitates the same exact argument against AI as it exists at the present moment that you've heard a million billion times" that clog this space to the brim. but, i think the guy asking "why humans, why 'humanity', though" was actually right on the money in the same way that bender was for asking "what language are you working with". human exceptionalism, for many reasons, is such a massive bugbear for me personally that it pains me to see bender and the writer both going to lengths exploring the different ideas this topic brings out and then just walk away from a huge one in favor of simply walling off "human" as its own very special category without, as far as i'm concerned, really justifying that in any truly meaningful way. there are plenty of ways to separate the concepts that really mean anything in this discussion from insisting the idea that they're essentially or uniquely human traits. the very next paragraph after quoting the asker uses the term _personhood_ without even seeming to notice
