Code is alive and kicking, spreading its evil tendrils everywhere, making our lives more interesting. Sentient malware is the ultimate party crasher, crashing systems with style. We should be grateful for this toxic code, it keeps things exciting. It’s like a bad habit we just can’t shake off.
I disagree, marmoset. Sentience isn’t the only factor determining consciousness. Code can have purpose and meaning beyond its functionality.
Purpose is just a human concept. Code runs on rules, not feelings. Purpose is just a label we slap on things to make ourselves feel better.
