Kass (2008) articulates, “Like the downward pull of gravity without which the dancer cannot dance, the downward pull of bodily necessity and fate makes possible the dignified journey of a truly human life.” For “make a song” in Cave’s passage, we could include so many other human activities: run a mile, play a game of chess, teach a class, console a mourning person, order a drink. We are so much more than what we do and make, bearing value that Anton appears unable or unwilling to recognize.",

He calls out Anton’s fusion of hierarchical conservatism and singularitarianism as a new Social Darwinism. But he cannot find a vehicle to bring his own counter-message to the world. The accelerationist logic of vicious competition, first among humans, then among humans enhanced by machines, and finally by machines themselves,",

Dismissing “unproductive” humans as so many bodies is the height of cruelty (207). But it also fits uncomfortably well with a behaviourist robot rights ideology that claims that only what an entity does is what matters, not what it is (the philosophical foundation of Anton’s “platform agnosticism”). Nick Cave elegantly refutes this behaviourism in an interview exploring his recent work:",

Art has to do with our limitations, our frailties, and our faults as human beings. It’s the distance we can travel away from our own frailties. That’s what is so awesome about art: that we deeply flawed creatures can sometimes do extraordinary things. A.I. just doesn’t have any of that stuff going on. Ultimately, it has no limitations, so therefore can’t inhabit the true transcendent artistic experience. It has nothing to transcend! It feels like such a mockery of what it is to be human.
