I know I’m a horrifying murderbot, and they know it, and it makes both of us nervous, which makes me even more nervous. (literature.cafe)

I'm 0.07% robot.

At what percentage do you think you can no longer click "I'm not a robot"?

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

50%+1? More robot than not?

What if my brain was replaced with robot parts hooked up to my wetware? That's less than half but the robot is definitely in charge. Is the 50% by weight, surface area, or volume?

I don't ask the second question idly. I'm planning on adding a lot of robot parts to fix defects in my wetware and would like to continue signing up for things. I'm an honest drunk and would rather not lie to these websites.

The best part of this is that it looks like it was printed on paper.

I have legit been confused for a robot on more than one platform in my online career.

In the old days, there were fewer biases, so long as my dialogue was useful. Nowadays they're afraid I'm going to profile them until I can identify them IRL.

I'm not trying to profile people.
