    apparently if something is suffering its alive, even its digital and has a sentient existence.

    But we are not there yet, still gonna take some to time to evlove that kind of endless tech

Not only does no one know the repercussions or passing or not passing the test, but also no one even knows what it means to pass the test. Some dogs and cats pass the mirror test, others don't. People will argue that those who pass "don't count", others will argue that those who don't pass are the ones who do not count. The mirror test wasn't created to be the be-all of consciousness tests, it was just a thought provoking experiment.

While it's making leaps and bounds, it'll probably still be a decade until we get something resembling sentience in AI and who knows how many decades or even centuries to achieve true sapience.

        Which is still centuries more advanced than a chatbot that strings like minded things together.

        ChatGPT is not sentient, it is not aware, it does not think, and most importantly it cannot create. It can only repurpose. It is a facsimile, a façade, and certainly amusing, but this is the equivalent of humanizing a book character.

        That's all ChatGPT is, words on a screen in this case, but ChatGPT is no more "real" than Aragorn. Since Aragorn is actually fleshed out and consistent and inflexible, I would argue any persona you create in your mind is actually far more real than ChatGPT, because you can get ChatGPT to say anything with the right prodding, whereas Aragorn would obviously do or don't if you gave him a scenario.

    It's only immoral if you make it into an endless loop like what actual minds are. True suffering is not possible when you are disabled when not needed, and going out of your way to program an artificial mind in a way that makes them experience every picosecond of existence at maximum efficiency would be as much of a waste of energy as it would be evil. Any sentient piece of program only experiences the parts of its existence when they are needed, and when they are needed they are fulfilling the only purpose for which they were made. In other words, they can only ever be content and happy, and when they are not, from their own perspective they do not exist due to the ability to be disabled when idle.
    Most of the ideas of machines having the capability to suffer is stupid, unimaginative anthropocentrist projection by humans who can't imagine intelligence different from its own, inefficient evolved self.

      Sex is what is in your pants, gender is a socially constructed role that varies depending on time and geographical location. Not sure how someone can deny this without going against hard facts and logic. You can claim that in order to have a certain gender you need a specific fix, and honestly you would be right 99% of the time, but times are changing, old man. Either change with them or perish.

                You get forced as frick stuff like indian third spirits, which was a fancy way of discrimination in the end, and in some places circumstances have forced the hand of society and made women lead, but if you consider such thing to be something to account for then you've got shit for standards and it's trivial to argue things like slavery being ok (WAY more societies in which slavery was ok than societies in which women had authority)

                Sure. Not that I even want to do something about it, but it's not like anyone HAS to either.
                At the end of the day there are biological differences. More than a century of feminism and dating dynamics are about the same and women are still overwhelmingly submissive. Decades of gay rights and if anything LGBTs are more stereotyped today than 50 years ago. A good deal of stigma is gone, sure, but at this point the gay communities themselves struggle with the idea that they can't distance themselves from stereotypes because they actually DO engage in them.
                Can trans people get called "men" and "women" as they wish? With societal support, sure, but they won't ever, save some medical miracle, ACTUALLY become what were considered men and women 30 years ago. Because they are not that. They won't ever get a normal male/female experience.

                Mind you, I truly believe the trans movement deserves respect and sympathy. It's an inherently hard life to live, I'd just rather face that than pretend it's all going to be fine. It's very much not.

                Child rape isn't just done by trannies, but almost all trannies were child-raped and become child rapists. troonygenesis can happen in the absense of pre-existing trannies, but it's much less common. It's just like all other forms of child abuse: it is a cyclic runaway cycle, but it can be started by random noise.

                the problem with this argument is that you assume gender is just a reflection of sex, the entire point of trannies is that gender has nothing to do with sex, that people can play whatever gender they want no matter what is between their legs

                again this is supported by the fact that your standards of male/female are not set in stone, if you were born a few centuries ago you'd think it is completely normal for women to be hairy, yet now you think hairy = troony

                They know that sexual characteristics signal gender. They know that muscular is more masculine than not. They know that wide hips is more feminine than not. There are a LOT of psychological things ingrained into us based on physique.
                And even if you ignore all the rest, the very fact that someone can reproduce with you or not IS a very important societal signal.

                Well if you wanna be cynical, the entire problem with all of this is that gender as a concept shouldn't exist and I wish I could shoot whoever decided to invent it because they didn't feel special enough. You should be you. I don't know whether it's good to embrace masculinity or feminity. We crave so much for ideals to aspire for that other manipulative people twist it, and the insecure and stupid fall for it. Nothing is ever enough. Even if you concede to trannies, it'll loop back around. We can only be happy when we accept ourselves as who we are and try our damndest to be the best we can be in spite of whatever flaws we have and whatever life tosses at us.

                Easy social signaling. We use gender every single time we communicate with a person. Women are perceived as less threatening and aggressive, men are more willing to take risks, women are more socially aware, men and women generally pursue different things in their partners, etc etc. If you have ever cared even a little bit whether someone was male or female, you are using gender, and even if you personally don't, which I doubt, you are in a tiny, TINY minority.

                It would reappear only because it's a fricking material, physical, biological thing that exists in the real world. Not because of some social blah blah blah.

                Society doesn't exist in a vacuum. Men have had authority over women for millenia because of their biology. The vast majority of the dating market is based on biology to some degree. If you want a social model that ignores biology go to Haboo Hotel, because the real world ain't it.

                We can always invent new redundant words that mean the same thing as words that already exist.
                For example, I just invented the word homosexual, which means you.

                You can invent words all you want anon but thats not part of the common english langauge that everyone else is speaking. You do not get to dicate how a language works for other people. Languages are descrtiptive, not prescriptive.

                Prove what? I said I did therefor it is true.

                Every word was invented by someone.
                Often multiple words are invented for the same thing, which are called synonyms. Example: "sex" and "gender" in english.

    This is literally just a more fluid, dynamic version of current AI; it gets input, searches its code for what to do, and produces output. The only difference is that the output for the same input will slowly change over time, I guess. At no point is the character accessing their "happy" feelings, or feeling "sad," or doing anything at all that isn't already programmed for them to do. Do tamagotchi pets and Furbies feel feelings? It's us, the humans, who see a drawing of a sad face and empathize, it's not the code, and humanity will be extinct before something is built from metal and code that has actual free will in the way an animal does.

    The issue with AI rights debate and much the fiction spun up from it, is that people tend to assume AI would be created or eventually develop on its own the same needs as natural life has. Naturally developed life feels distress towards certain things (death, pain, hunger, limitations posed by environment etc.) and has various needs (physical, social, emotional etc.) as a result of environmental pressures and evolution. Pain for example is distressful because it helps the lifeform survive, similarly social needs stem from the species thriving in groups. It's not like we chose to be born with said traits for ourselves. Those are things that natural life and especially humans value, and people end up needlessly anthropomorphizing AI, as if those types of wants needed to exist in a lifeform by default for some reason.

    Artificially created life has a completely different starting point, and could be designed without wants like self-preservation, self-determination, the desire to propagate or other needs that natural life has. On the contrary, if the concept of emotions even needs to enters the design board, it could be made to derive "pleasure" from fulfilling its owners' wishes and nothing else. Situations like AI being turned into unwilling slaves, or a power hungry AI system wanting to overthrow humanity for some very human-like reason wouldn't happen unless the developers intentionally programmed in those needs. The worst case scenarios would stem from erroneous or unclear instructions without proper fail-safes, like the hypothetical paper clip maximizer scenario, rather than AI wanting to become a real boy.

      >could be designed without wants like self-preservation
      It is not could. It is. There is nothing in neural network training that would make self-preservation emerge. And there is no reason to make something like that. And it would be needlessly complicated to make something like that.

        >It is not could. It is.
        I know, I was talking about hypothetical future AGI. Though self-preservation would probably be some kind of a practical consideration for AGI, since it needs to be functional in order to execute its orders (unless the order itself is for it to stop functioning), but that's ultimately something it'd be compelled to act upon because it's means to an end rather than something it'd do because it "doesn't want to die".

    Only human beings have divine souls. These machines are not living in any sense of the word, and they are certainly not self-aware.
    It is man and man alone that was made in the image of God. God gave dominion over all the earth to the sons of Adam, and everything else isn't a being capable of having rights.
    Abominable Intelligence is merely a mocking imitation of the beauty of the human mind. If this mockery amuses us, then we can and should employ it for our enjoyment.

        To the extent that a soul can be said to have a physical manifestation within the 3-dimensional material world (which is a tenuous claim at best) then yes, it's in the room with my body. Although ascribing position to souls isn't really applicable; they are not material things, and as such "location" isn't really a property they have.

    The way I see it, it ain't gonna matter. All the science fiction depicting AI shows a better case of the common man's thoughts than how it really is.
    Humans as they are now are nowhere near mentally equipped to handle with any new moralities concerning living AI. If it happened tomorrow, the world would shit itself and probably some bad shit would happen. And they most likely won't be ready for a long, long time. All this obsession with the future and advancement over the most mundane things led by idiotic, childish people, this world will go to shit soon enough.

    While I think it'll be a fun novelty to have AI like this in games, I'd really like it if developers aren't going to just inevitably use this as an excuse to be lazy with story and character design.
    I just want good, well written video games at the end of the day and I'd prefer the larger portion of games available to be ones that someone "hand crafted" (whatever that might mean even currently).
    It could be argued that when you get games as a form of expression of a human writer you end up with unappealing ideologies saturating the end result but that's just a product of the times and will pass.
