      That’s a core part of the grift. Even people who supposed hate “AI” still promote this kind of anthropomorphic disinformation. It’s rampant.

        Yeah but people aren’t having conversations with your socks thinking they actually are alive and your socks don’t then talk said people into suicide so I’m pretty sure it’s at least a little bit different.

      Trying to avoid anthropomorphising something with which you interact via natural language is incredibly laborious, and achieves nothing.

        Avoiding false statements achieves scientific accuracy and honest progress rather than grifting and bullshit.

        And TBH it’s not at all difficult for me to distinguish between my computer and a human.
