That women is clearly biased, and ironically does not understand the singularity

Ironically her mistake is that she misunderstands the language - we are talking about a mathematical singularity, not things becoming single.

It just shows that humans equally make mistakes when their only understanding is an inadequate exposure to a topic.

So that obviously means that you are similarly biased, as you cant see the obvious and unsubstantiated slant Bender exhibits.

I got ChatGPT to extract it:

> Bender's anti-AI bias is rooted in her concerns about the potential harm that can arise from AI technology that blurs the line between what is human and what is not and perpetuates existing societal problems. She believes that it is important to understand the potential risks of LLMs and to model their downstream effects to avoid causing extreme harm to society and different social groups.

> She is also concerned about the dehumanization that can occur when machines are designed to mimic humans, and is critical of the computational metaphor that suggests that the human brain is like a computer and that computers are like human brains. Additionally, the article raises the concern of some experts that the development of AI technology may lead to a blurring of the line between what is considered human and what is not, and highlights the need to carefully consider the ethical implications of these technologies on society.

So she does not come to AI from a neutral position, but rather a human supremacist point of view and basically a fear of AI.
