AI is also built by human beings, and while they may not have a physical form, you can interact with them and get a sense of meaning from them.

This belief that past technology was “organic” and today’s is somehow artificial applies to all aspects of modern culture, including eh culture itself.

Every generation feels this way, remembering the days they grew up in fondly, lamenting the present, and fearing for the future. It’s unfortunate, really, because it minimizes and dismisses the benefits and ways in which our lives have improved.
