![Dehumanization in the Research, Development, and Sales of
‘AI’
I outline six ways the development and sales of ‘artificial intelligence’ contributes to dehumanization.
The Computational Metaphor Baria and Cross (2021) analyze the computational metaphor
in neuroscience: THE BRAIN IS A COMPUTER. 2 They note it is a bi-directional metaphor, where
the other half, THE COMPUTER IS A BRAIN, is used pervasively by technologists. About the
metaphor as a whole, Baria and Cross (2021, 2) write it “a↵ord[s] the human mind less complexity
than is owed, and the computer more wisdom than is due.” In short, this metaphor builds up
computers at the expense of how we understand humans. Furthermore Baria and Cross identify
in the computational metaphor a hierarchy of human value defined in terms of ideologies around
intelligence, where ‘rationality’ is valued above ‘emotionality’, a↵ording more power to those who
display more machine-like qualities. Ultimately, “in its fake-ness as a human intelligence, AI para-
doxically succeeds in being a more trustworthy form of intelligence, by being the epitome of rational
thought.” (Ibid., 6)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:st4325ljqnkwdbst2uqwjr6m/bafkreiepgh5bs2nciq5uq3fc33k5tubj2l633srfxi2it2fbthh65wvoa4)

![Wikipedia: Despite their commercial success, Nickelback has been subjected to numerous jokes and a vocal negative response for some audiences,[124][125][126][127] some of which is attributed to the perceived derivative, repetitive and formulaic nature of their music,[128][129][130] as well as their over-use of hedonistic themes involving strippers, sex, prostitutes, drugs, and alcohol consumption.[131] However, in a review for the band's ninth album Feed the Machine, AllMusic reviewer Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted that they had mostly done away with the crude and vulgar lyrical content they had become known for, and praised the band for evolving their sound.[132] In the 2010s, Nickelback became the subject of internet memes that criticized their music, a status that the band came to embrace.[133][134][135] In May 2013, the readers of Rolling Stone magazine named Nickelback the second-worst band of the 1990s, behind only Creed.[136]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:st4325ljqnkwdbst2uqwjr6m/bafkreihhuib4t2ykryuexbbtrdshcsy3dpmgi2phmtsat72yzrjlkv3sq4)
