Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

"Cap'n! The ship! She cannae take much more!" You don't know that. The ship's never been blown apart before, we have no idea what she can take. Besides, she's called the "Indomitable" not the "Domitable if you shoot us with a few cannons." We do appear to be sinking, though, yes.
I called Ikea to find out why I haven’t gotten a refund yet and the woman at the customer service call center said, “I can’t tell you what it is, but something very bad has happened.”
