Sounds like the ‘clank’ slur from the Deus Ex universe.
Counting the days till conservatives start flying Knights Templar uniforms.
no. we call them toasters for a reason.
Frakking toasters.
if robots gain personhood, it’s not the robot body that gains personhood. it’s the robot mind, aka. the computer.
imo personhood is tied to responsibility. if machines can be responsible, they can be persons.
consider that a lot of organizations already have legal personhood, including corporations, non-profit foundations, and cities/states.
We’re heading towards Deus Ex.
I and at least two other people once called robots “tin cans” on social media. Can mashable turn that into a “news story”, too?
This DEFINITELY gunna get cꝏpted by rightshits (if it hasn’t already)
Just sincere enough to not be obvious satire , peops outright saying they’re gonna be “robophobic” (sadly don’t think they’re joking) , probably using mass AI panic to recruit peops rightward … writings on the wall
So many peops gonna be radicalised into ecofascism (if not just regular degular fascism) it’s scary . Don’t think this funny at all
If we end up with Star wars robots that would be quite fun actually. They’re basically more comedic than they are dangerous.
The KX units would probably disagree. Love the design of them, like a robotic overweight Mafioso.
Wait… do we have slurs against LLMs now? Fuuuuck…
Does this mean we’re getting genetically engineered whale based airships in the british navy?
Shiny hiney
It’s the clanks! Beat it felllas!
Are we allowed to use that hard r though?

Every time I pull the string on the back of this doll it says something nice to me. Is this true love?
Reach for the sky, Partner!!!
Hate to break it to you but that aint the back of the doll and it isn’t a string you are pulling either.
But the affection is genuine.
There was a guy who married his DS (yes, a Nintendo DS) so I could see this happening. marrying something that isn’t even alive is just weird
One joke
That ship’s already passed, women have been loving on hand-held robots for decades now. I would bet that some women love their buzzy little friend more than the man in their lives.
To the point of marriage?
Ask them, I’d bet you’d find some takers.
Fracking toasters.
Toasters is, and always has been a better insult.
It needs to be plugged in, temperature set, then a button to turn bread into toast.
Basically calling a machine simple, single purposed, restrained, and relatively unconfigurable.
It’s also a device that is demonstrably better without AI. So you’re essentially saying that they would be better as script driven assembly arms.
Idk man.
The AI could like take a voice recording, break it down, say sure thing! This is how you make a toasted turkey sandwich!
Then refuse to toast your bread until it knows you put turkey, lettuce,tomato and mayo on the bread
While fairly dangerous when left unattended.
So say we all
So say we all.

Well, all right. But I don’t want anyone to think we’re robosexual or anything, so if anyone asks, you’re my debugger.
Oh my god they were debuggers!
