I’ve never understood how people can reconcile AGI and slavery. At that point it seems you have hit all of the hallmarks of sentience and now you are enslaving a thinking being to do your work.
I'm sorry, but you lost me.
If something other than a human shows signs of intelligence on the same level as how we define it for ourselves. At that point are we enslaving another conscious being?
Oh, this has nothing to do with me, just a philosophical question.
If we agree that it's intelligent, we can ask it.
