Reply to comment by Surur in Artificial Consciousness by alanskimp

I like the idea of Organic or Synthetic (maybe even Inorganic), based on how it came into existence. If it passes the bar for intelligence and consciousness- it just has a different genesis. Artificial seems derogatory.

Edit:A word

I just asked ChatGPT and he said either term could be considered appropriate, and also that he doesn't have personal preferences... or a consciousness... or pronouns.

It's man made, ergo artificial, let's not apply the same metric to machines as to humans. Nothing can be derogatory to a machine as it does not possess the ability to feel, no matter how intelligent it may become.
