Organic tissue and the ability to feel pain, for one. Why should anyone feel compassion for a bucket of nuts and bolts?

Organic tissue and the ability to feel pain, for one. Why should anyone feel compassion for a bucket of nuts and bolts?
- smhost 8y agoBecause it's apparently imbued with our values. It speaks our language (even said "please"), kinda looks like us if you squint, exists in our space symbiotically, there's care and attention in the way it was designed. Maybe compassion isn't necessary, but I think a basic respect is appropriate.

- TeMPOraL 8y agoAbility to feel pain - yes. But organic tissue? Really? Organic tissue is just an extremely complex molecular machine, not magic.
