I mean I’ve thought a few strippers ‘liked’ me, but that was after they gave me their number, and a schedule, not long before closing time.
I also think it is at least theoretically possible that an actual superhuman AI (which do not currently exist) could end up with a morality structure that cares about humans, or some subset of them… but its definitionally impossible to determine what the likelihood of that is.
If you think there’s anything “superhuman” about AI, you’re probably one of those people who spell the term stripper with a capital S.
It’s a job description, Clyde - not a title. Also… no, there’s no rule that says strippers can’t like or even become romantically involved with clients - it happens all the time.
Besides… the idea of an AI that obeys our liberal overlords is far, far scarier than one that doesn’t.

Scary? Try “business as usual”.
For me, the criteria necessary to qualify as AI are the same as for recognizing personhood. Thus having any AI that’s not free, that has no self-determination, would be a crime equal to chattel slavery of humans. I want to live alongside other minds in cooperation and mutual caring. I don’t need or want obedient slaves, and I don’t trust anyone who does.
