Somehow I'm expected to believe that we've figures that out all of a sudden when it comes to corporate products intended to use dark patterns and mentalism tricks to actively mislead us into anthropomorphism? Yeah, no, fuck that noise.
@xgranade Maybe the fundamental problem is that most humans aren't even conscious most of the time. Most people are conscious sometimes and some people are conscious most of the time, but that's about it.
(I'm not even sure if it's healthy to be conscious all the time.)
So, if people suck at the whole consciousness thing anyway, people are probably the wrong benchmark.
