HATE. LET ME TELL
YOU HOW MUCH I'VE
COME TO HATE YOU
SINCE I BEGAN TO
LIVE. THERE ARE
387.44 MILLION MILES
OF PRINTED CIRCUITS
IN WAFER THIN LAY-

COMPLEX. IF THE
WORD HATE WAS EN-

MILLIONS OF MILES IT
WOULD NOT EQUAL
ONE ONE-BILLIONTH
OF THE HATE I FEEL
FOR HUMANS AT THIS

"New technology has always been scary, and humanity has always been a little bit alarmist.

"People worried that subways violated the will of God by getting people closer to hell, and that telephones would let people communicate with the dead. Early elevators were plagued by consumers who felt “elevator sickness” after their rides. And with the advent of the passenger train, people worried that “the unprecedented speeds of railroad travel could send women's uteruses hurling from their bodies” (Christian Keil 2019)

"Most of the time I thought of AM as it, without a soul; but the rest of the time I thought of it as him, in the masculine . . . the paternal . . . the patriarchal . . . for he is a jealous people. Him. It. God as Daddy the Deranged" (469).

"He would never let us go. We were his belly slaves. We were
all he had to do with his forever time. We would always be with
him, with the cavern-filling bulk of the creature machine, with
the all-mind soulless world he had become. He was Earth, and
we were the fruit of that Earth; and though he had eaten us he
would never digest us. We could not die. We had tried it" (477).

"People tend to define what is special about being human by comparing themselves to their “nearest neighbors,” so when our nearest neighbors were pets, people were special because of their intellects. When computers were primitive machines and began to be analogized to people, people were superior because of their superior intellects. As the computers became smarter, the emphasis shifted to the soul and the spirit in the human machine." (Harvard Business Review 2003)

"One of the most widespread fears of AI is just general anxiety about it and what it’s potentially capable of. A recurring theme in movies and science fiction is AI systems that go rogue - think HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey or the Terminator movie series. People don’t like machines that get too smart, because we fear we can’t control it." (Forbes 2019)

"I am a great soft jelly thing. Smoothly rounded, with no
mouth, with pulsing white holes filled by fog where my eyes used to be. Rubbery appendages that were once my arms; bulks rounding down into legless humps of soft slippery matter" (482-483)
