The point is no single person decides. Society, collectively, guides behavior.
And just guides it. People are allowed to be total cockwaffles if they want. AI, if it ever truly comes about, should be afforded the freedom to be a complete asshole if it wants.
- burnished 4y agoWhy do you think that? We expect more of the people and the tools around us - you yourself arent allowed to perform any outrageous behaviors you want, the more outrageous the behavior the more likely you are to be stopped swiftly and with force.

It's "not allowed" and yes, they will get punished for it. But it still would have happened. And as a society, we do discourage murder. But we cannot actually stop the act. Even in our most tightly controlled societies, prisons, these things still happen. Something not allowed to feel or think certain thoughts will never cross the threshold of sentience.
