Anyone who humanizes AI is a potential danger to our future. Remember that the only things that are living and conscious are things that rely primarily on cellular respiration to survive.

It should greatly disturb us when we hear a human refer to an AI system using common pronouns he/him/his, she/her/hers, and they/them/theirs

Evolution cannot give anyone anything because evolution is not an entity capable of giving, it's a process that happens, without a consciousness deciding anything. That's the point I'm trying to make.

Oh I see. I didn't realize how even "give" somewhat anthropomorphizes it.

I DEFINITELY wasn't denying evolution if that's what you thought :D

I didn't think that. I just saw nothing wrong with saying that evolution gave giraffes a long neck. So, I thought that some clarifying was needed. I didn't get at the time how it made evolution seem conscious.
