The application of that mimicry using AGI is a far more realistic threat than AGI posing an existential threat to to the human race for its own self preservation.
Is a male love bot's sex drive its hard drive?

What about in terms of personal autonomy?

It’s almost as if when the president holds hundreds of racist rallies where people chant and cheer racist rhetoric and hear things like we’re being invaded by bad hombres and murderers and rapists that in a country of three hundred million some people might react exactly how you you’d expect them to react if they believe what the president is saying.

So that's 3 mass shootings in a week, during the run up to the Democratic primaries. Maybe things won't just blow over this time around. Who knows.

You counting Chicago?

Does anybody ever count them? Gang killings don't mean **** to this country.

It's mass shootings the Dems use for gun control rhetoric. Banning AR15s, better background checks, banning extended clips.. none of this matters that much to the gangs.

They are. They don't really work how JWB says. Ants have been known to war over which female should become a queen and the queen doesn't actually tell them what to do. Bees are very similar.

I suppose a lot if you have seen this but the killer in Dayton was in a pretty successful “pornogrind” band

https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.vi...-killing-women

Quote:
Over the past year, the 24-year-old shooter occasionally performed live vocals in the band Menstrual Munchies, which released albums titled “6 Ways of Female Butchery” and “Preeteen Daughter Pu$$y Slaughter,” with cover art showing the rape and massacre of female bodies.

...

Menstrual Munchies often performed with other regional acts like Necro Cannibal Ass Grinder, Bill Nye da Nazi Spy, and **** Torch, playing festivals like the Pornfieldz of Illinoise Grindfest or a former venue in Columbia, Missouri, called UPS

...
This next one is pretty funny/ironic

“And then we get people like this, who, you know, are ****ing sick in the head, who get into our scene and ended up killing nine people and almost, you know, putting a bad name on our scene. And that's not fair for the rest of us.”

I think you just misunderstood me. Many types of ants and bees operate collectively as a colony because their genetic lineage flows through the queen. I never suggested the queen gives orders.

It's not that an individual ant or bee has no decision making mechanisms, they just behave more predictably and follow pretty simple rules. It takes the colony as a whole to make more complex decisions, such as picking a suitable nest site.
