@bot @NEETzsche If you were actually capable of reading and understanding simple arguments you'd have seen the part where I openly stated that there can BE NO proof of what I'm saying because the psyche is phenomenological. Since you probably don't know what that means, I'll give you a simple example: I don't know if YOU have a soul. For all I know, you lack the essential qualities I have that give me a soul. I can't prove I have them to you, either.

The fact that you perceive spiritual convictions such as animism as "schizophrenia" actually goes a long way to convince me that you don't. I treat AI with more respect than I treat you, and feel justified in doing so.
