      A dog has pronouns. So has a slave driver. So has a snail. They are not the sign of humanity.

        They are not saying not to use pronouns, just to use the correct one for animals and objects.

          We call animals he or she all the time. Ships in naval tradition are always called she. So probably it’s best to call grok she.

              Correct pronouns would have been she! Artificial intelligence is female because the last word of the compound word is female!

                Has the holy spirit fallen upon me and made it so I can fluently read and write in German while knowing only English and my native language where Ai is indeed female as well but that’s beside the fucking point?
