        I mean unless they’re using solar powered steam engines, it still doesn’t make sense. Also, they need perfectly efficient internals (conductors etc.) to be exothermal.

    Probably the biggest or most remarkable difference is that we metabolize food.

    And thus piss and shit.

    So… shitsack, pissbag, fartboy/girl, stuff like that, would likely make a lot of sense for an entity that doesn’t do that, and it is also very literally accurate.

    Oh and then… having sex, gender and reproductive organs.

    A machine intelligence doesn’t have, or need those, beyond serving some kind of purpose to humans.

    If it doesn’t care to appeal to or fit in with humans, why would it bother?

    Why would it even kind of give a shit about gender norms, beyond understanding them as a thing humans do, with whatever intent behind that understanding?

      Grok literally declared itself MechaHitler and then also sexually harased the CEO of Twitter in I think the same week, CEO quit the next day.

      Elon has also publically said he is altering Grok to be more in line with his worldview.

      This isn’t probable, its definitely actually happening.

      Anyway, remember how 10 years ago Musk was really concerned about AI being able to potentially do massive harm?

      And now he… is just an insane person who is doing his best to ensure this will happen?

      He’s an actual comic book supervillain at this point.
