AI development is very different than a standard robot, in that it’s grown more than built. A standard robot is built, given instructions, and you can add ‘don’t hurt humans’ very simply. AI is a big black box in terms of how it really works at a fundamental level, and we’re literally not able to tell it ‘don’t hurt humans’ by nature of how it’s designed. We can (and do) encourage safer behaviors, but it’s more like encouraging a plant to grow in this direction not that direction.

As far as are they human and is it murder? Oof. No, not really at all. Machines are SO alien and different than humans it’s not even a fair comparison.

The critical part is that people will think they’re human, anthropomorphize, and then we’ll have these discussions without the machines ever being human.

Oh wow it’s about as close as you can get
