As far as what is the line between human and machine? That's a great question.

I am as dispassionate as it is possible for a human being to be and not be a machine.

If we are machines, then in principle at least, we should be able to build machines out of other stuff, which are just as alive as we are.

In the society, where people are just parts in a larger machine, individuals are unable to develop fully.

Nothing is less instructive than a machine.

Anything that's living is a machine. I'm a machine; my children are machines. I can step back and see them as being a bag of skin full of biomolecules that are interacting according to some laws.

Almost everything is like a machine.

I'm a machine man, and I head a machine.

If we're going to achieve compassion in the machines and also feel safe with the machines, to raise machines with human-like values, we need to make them human-like by simulating, or perhaps eventually imitating, human beings in high accuracy from top to bottom.

Our technology, our machines, is part of our humanity. We created them to extend ourselves, and that is what is unique about human beings.
