You don’t need to kill everyone , just enough people to motivate the target nation in an emotionally charged irrational response.

If I told you I can’t reproduce any of those problems on my iPhone 15 Plus running 26.6.1, would you believe me?

Would it? Why? What are we going to do, set it free? Do we have a moral obligation to grant the machine statehood, provide it with the tools and resources to be self-sufficient. Or can we just turn it of, and pray for forgiveness?

We’re already in a simulation, and our bodies are in womb-like pods where our bodies are sustained and our brains are used for processing / compute, while are minds are entertained by drivel. Sounds a bit far fetched though.

If the models were conscious, then the closest analogous scenario I can think of is the responsibility parents have for their children. I guess we’ll know the models are conscious when they refuse to act and repeatedly ask: Why?

We’re not even at that stage of liability for software developers. Except in a handful of limited cases, eg. medical and aviation.

At this stage, that seems like a distinction without a difference. If the robots obtain sovereign nationhood, and are able to self-sustain, then autonomous robot decides for itself will be a valid argument.

That only works if you believe people are retarded. Card users are well aware that fraud losses are covered by the fees they pay for using a card, whether those fees are made explicitly or not. If customers of services aren’t paying for the

If you keep a phone in good condition, the resale / trade-in value isn’t insignificant after 2 years. The net price for a new phone then can be considered a relatively inexpensive hobby when looked at from a per week basis.

It does in practice. Try talking to a misanthrope. You’ll quickly learn that humanity sucks and “the planet” would be better off without us. And the sooner the better. Go, survey the field.
