The line is becoming more and more blurry. It will require constant restraint like with other things, to not become too dependent.

Soy una criatura increíblemente especial, la mejor obra terrestre creada, puedo tomar decisiones aunque me equivoque, puedo aprender de ese error, tengo libre albedrío, tengo el privilegio de pensar, imaginar, soñar, puedo persivir emociones en un abrazo, un beso, una puesta de sol, un amanecer, la belleza de un día lluvioso en primavera, el olor de una flor, recordar aquello hermoso, soy la mejor criatura creada. Supero a las máquinas porque yo las creé con el gran cerebro que se me otorgo en mi creación. Soy el hombre soy la mujer, soy hijo, soy madre, Ninguna máquina por muy inteligente que se invente puede ser superior a mi.

I think all creatures are machines and machines creatures. Machines are crude creatures relative to human creatures but I don’t think machines will be crude forever. But machines, when creatures, will probably have different vestiges. So I think this question reduces to how attached one is to their heritage, how much their temperament is conservative.
