       Anthropomorphizing language can be cute when applied to your favorite car, but it helps to muddy the discourse when applied to tech sold as "AI", especially given all the boosters and AGI-cult members peddling their nonsense about imminent artificial minds. New from me & Nanna Inie on Tech Policy Press -- how to spot & revise away from anthropomorphizing language applied to "AI":https://www.techpolicy.press/we-need-to-talk-about-how-we-talk-about-ai/

       @emilymbender Appreciate this take. I have admittedly always felt uncomfortable with non-human things being called she, her, or using human names, be they boats or Alexa. I think it’s a way of reinforcing relationships that don’t actually exist, which this article excellently illustrates. Thanks for sharing.

       @forever_archives @emilymbender I don't want to argue, but I have to remind you, that there are also other languages and in some them, like ours, are words for non-living, non-human and non-animal things gendered a lot. And In French, there is even no neutral gender...
