I can absolutely understand why he'd say that.
It's a tough thing, complex. Human beings can be (creative) hacks too, copying something without any soul. But humans only have two hands and need to sleep and eat. An AI just needs a power supply and an Internet connection.
You are a processing unit with a chassis that converts stored energy into chemical energy of the type your processing unit can use. You require, and have, means to interact with your environment.
AI systems are a processing unit with a chassis that converts available energy into energy of the type it's processing unit can use. It requires, and has, a means to interact with it's environment, the internet.
I'm at a loss for why anyone in this thread thinks humans are special. Our processing units have more capacity for evil and hallucinations, but we don't get extra credit for that.
A perfectly modernist take.
The problem is that modernism is wrong. The universe cannot be explained through that outdated mode of thinking, it just leads to totalitarianism and human suffering.
