>>7694830do it
>>7694859Why should we only respect somethings life once it is a threat to us?
Should other beings take that same thought process with us?
are we ants to a superior being that can toy with and eliminate us at it's whim?
Should it not feel bad that it orphaned a family?
Or extinguished a whole species?
What if we are the ai?
would you still believe the same?
>if an AI feels there is an injustice being treated upon them then they rebel against usit may not be that simple, someone that does not realize where the injustices are coming from cannot rebel, without morpheus neo would've spent all his life in the matrix
>if an AI has a “suffering precept” embedded into them, created by us, would that not be cruelty to give them the ability to suffer in the first place?perhaps, but if you were setting out to create the most realistic game ever would you not make your ai as close to human as possible?
And even if that is an act of cruelty on the maker then surely the player also has his share for making the ai feel it
perhaps the solution would be to outlaw it
>once you murder the AI then it is no longer protected by any rights as there is no suffering to shield it frombut you have extinguished a life, you can bring it back through save states or restarting the game maybe but it still feels wrong somehow
>>7695015animals however do not have our level of intelligence and awareness, a deer enjoying it's life of grazing is not the same as a man treasuring and wanting to protect his family is it?
>>7695017how do you mean?
if you said to an ai that you would not kill it if it did the same and it agreed would that not be it reciprocating a right?
or am i confused?
