Artificial Personas and Public Discourse
- sneak 7y agoIt worries me that “artificial personas” are being systematically vilified. We don’t have AGI; these personas are created by humans running software, publishing content also made by humans running software. It is stereotypical pseudonymous publishing. That is legal and encouraged and explicitly protected. Until computers can decide to publish by themselves, this is just another form of human publishing. Calling them “bots” is a slur. They are pseudonyms of the real live human running the software that posts under these names.
