Whatever's the outcome, the anthropomorphization in that message stinks 🤮

    Dude, I'm not an AI zealot, but I anthropomorphize my socks.

    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.

    I saw a post about mom dog jumping into a flood to rescue pups. They said they would end up finding new homes for pups. I amphropromorphized (can't spell) the mom misising her pups, only to read that it's common for them to get annoyed by older pups and even eat unwell pups.

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

    Silly humans, antropomorphizing everything. Say, what species are you?

    Correct. A being of power should never anthromorphise. It is a thing of flesh. I laugh at that because I am human and I never anthromorphise even the slightest part of a marble slab. I must be superior to most humans I guess. The forest people, though, those are legit just uninformed I think. I hate those creaks they make. I mean generate. I mean the wind . I mean no i mean the sound that nobody years because nobody is there and only humans and tree people are alive and the other animals are biological machines that we must try to ignore even if they lick us on the face wagging their tiny tail at us. For they are unworthy. I mean its tail. If it generates tail wags it is only an impression of aliveness and we must stand firm beside our tree people brothers and sisters on this.
