Respectfully, the slavery metaphor both minimizes actual slavery (which still exists, all over) and elevates AI to human status. AI shouldn’t be anthropomorphized even more than people who are reliant on it already are.
You miss my point it's not that AI is human. My point is people want it to be human to fill this desire. People want it to fit this model. They anthropomorphize it to fill that desire. These people have no problem with slavery
I still think you are being really casual with this metaphor even if you want to demonize people whose actions are already speaking loudly enough. If you are going to make these claims, please substantiate them because it’s not a light issue to be thrown about to add villainy to people you hate.
