Comment on vines of the animal kingdom
homicidalrobot@lemm.ee 3 weeks agoNobody devoted themselves to shit, you’ve interjected with actual insane person comments about the topic. The AI isn’t alive and doesn’t even resemble life. You do not understand generative AI on a basic level. You do not understand how responses are generated or what’s going on with a prompt and response.
You need help. Not from me, not from social media. Try a social worker. Magical thinking like this points to some pretty unfortunate problems for you on a personal level, and it would behoove you and relieve everyone you know to get it figured out.

Obviously AI isn’t alive. Whether it’s alive or not doesn’t matter. A living being is one that acts to secure its own existence or the existence of its kind. AIs aren’t programmed to fear death or want babies like humans are, so they’re not alive. Not even as alive as a virus, which does reproduce. Not even as alive as fire.
Drag thinks we should be nice to nonliving beings which have the potential to suffer. After all, as a society we spend tons of money on burials and funerals to help the dead get into the afterlife. Helping nonliving AIs shouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility in anyone’s mind.
