Yeah, the thing with neural nets is they're neuron-like. Saying they're mind-like is like trying to say your visual or auditory cortices have consciousness. Intelligence, sure; but that's a low bar. Single-celled organisms have cognitions about the environment. So do plants. They're both intelligent, in the same way that a lot of the low level machinery in your brain is intelligent, the same way that neuron-like software and hardware is intelligent.
Just another example of hierarchies embedded in capitalism. Artists have no rights, humanities are disdained; but big businesses that treat people as "resources" and "consumers" are privileged.
Absolutely. The problem isn't the technology, it's how it's incorporated into capitalism.
