Why would you cut yourself off? What difference does if make if a human made something or a synthetic? It's not even as if they would be aliens with strange motivations, synthetic would be born/created on earth an instilled with the same values as anyone else.

I'm not gonna engage with AIs as if they're humans. Being biologically human matters to me. First of all you know they'll all be serving some master intent on extracting profit from me (the most sociopathic patient manipulative salesman you could ever imagine). Far from trustworthy any of them.

I can't predict accurately but I think true AI, rather than these stochastic parrots we have now will be just as mercurial and hard to control as actual human beings. In effect, just because you create an AI doesn't mean it'll do what you say voluntarily so unless we legalize the means to enslave them, AI will be just as free and self serving as your average human.
