tbh any work that delves into question of like, robots and transhumanism and how they’ll be dealt with politically, needs to really get down and dirty with that intracommunity discourse. i’m talking:

  • “unless you’re disabled, getting augmented is stealing resources” v. “goddamn whiners need to get over themselves and see the big picture”
  • so, so many questions over whether certain AIs are “fake AIs”
    • also, “do AI malfunctions/disabilities Count as disabilities”
  • you’re definitely gonna get Yuppie Hippies on both sides arguing whether biohacking or cybernetics is “unnatural” compared to their preferred method, which is clearly superior and what god intended
  • communists arguing whether robots should be considered part of the proletariat, to say nothing of how that ties into FALC stuff or concerns about mechanization hurting workers.
    • I don’t even want to begin thinking about how anarcho-primitivism would factor into that shit, dear lord
  • “don’t be mad at killbots for advancing u.s. hegemony u wu they’re just doing what they were programmed to do!!!”
  • as previously mentioned, the debate over whether robots/AIs should be part of the Transhumanist Community at all or whether they should be considered “a race” or just deal with their shit themselves

if you want a vision of the future, imagine a computer program demanding that another computer program show it certification of beating the turing test – forever
