This is a game that simulates a session of consensual sadomasochism - specifically, impact play. The player takes the role of the sadist, and must manage the session with care and diligence -...

Is it experiencing suffering while it's being "hurt" (perhaps mixed/conflicting with pleasure), or is it only appearing to experience pain while actually experiencing only pleasure?

Replying to

this is so interesting to me - i'm way more okay with designing a being's reward function to desire being hurt and then hurting it than i am with not designing its reward function at all and then doing something to it that it might not like bc you built it and therefore "own" it

Replying to

for me this all hinges on whether the robot is conscious and whether the man knows it's conscious. if yes, then the man should act toward it with the same ethical standards he would use for beings with a comparable level of consciousness. if not, then it's a sex toy; do w/e

Replying to

Is the AI aware? Is it conscious?

He designed its reward function. This still limits the idea of true sentients and autonomy. If it can obstruct it’s original function and find purpose beyond its creators original functions set criteria then I see no reason to place value when it cannot perceive value in itself.

I mean, there may be unintended consequences...

My "Kinda not okay" on this one is based on my suspicion that indulging in anti-social fantasies is unhealthful. Paternalism. I rate being "Kinda not okay" with this as "Kinda not okay." Life is complicated. Hypothetical life all the more so.
