I would treat AI better than I treat people. People are corrupt.
I don’t like doing formal debates because each side tries to prove why they are right and concessions are rare. Debates cause me a lot of stress.
I appreciate the comment, but I prefer we debate.
Besides the label, how would it be different? Does treating them like property mean if they work at McDonalds serving food, that you pay them minimum wage? But for how many employees? And why would a machine get paid? What can a machine do with money?
