>>105057642I really don't understand why this is being considered a big deal. AIs are not intrinsically linked to their bodies. May, for example, was arrested for trying to download herself into a nuclear jet.
They could put Roko into a television, an AI companion like Pintsize, a new humanoid body, or a fucking deep space telescope. The only difference any of this should make is what Roko would prefer to be.
Hell, Roko's body seemed pretty off the shelf as it was. They could probably just stroll on over to bodymart and get one exactly the fucking same, same face and everything.
This isn't a major accident. This is more like dying in a video game and waiting to respawn.
