      A Labrador retriever's single thought is "What can I get you, sir?" And a Dalmatian's single thought is "Get back! Out of the way!"

      Aaaakshully, I think you'll find a lab's brain says "I love it !!!". What is *it* ? Fuck if they know, but they're PUMPED about it.

      Yeah a retriever's intended job of retrieving is basically the dog version of what retail workers and waitstaff do ("What can I get you, sir? Yes sir, right away sir!")

      They have been programmed with and sincerely hold the "customer service mindset" they try to program humans with when you get any one of those jobs with a vest and a nametag

      That's why people who aren't really dog people like myself can find it kind of exhausting They *don't stop* asking "What can I get you, sir? Anything else, sir?" like they're a waiter desperate for a big tip or who's being watched by their boss

      "Are you SURE you have everything you need, sir? Is there NOTHING else I can get you that might make you happy? Just say the word!" Tail wagging, unbroken eye contact, big customer service smile from the training video

      I do think about how science fiction has raised the question of the ethics of creating robots - this terrible responsibility that comes from creating artificial beings whose purpose is to serve you and can only be happy by making you happy And like this *already happened*

      Yeah. Selectively breeding dogs to fit the needs of humans is really quite terrifying when you think about it. It's easy to ignore because the end product is a creature that genuinely and sincerely loves humans, you know?

      Even if you create genuinely benevolent true AI, you'd have a job getting people to trust it because the sincerity would be so off putting

      The plot point in Bicentennial Man that butler robots like Andrew are kind of a controversial new product that a lot of people hate because they're so annoying And the worst part is if you say it while they're standing there you feel like you're the asshole

      Darcy Carden talked about playing Janet on The Good Place and how she's always empathized with Alexa and thinks people who feel the need to yell and curse at Alexa or verbally abuse her are revealing their inner darkness It's literally like abusing a puppy

          Speaking as an autistic person, Janet was amazingly relatable. It was nice to have that positive portrayal.

          It's worth noticing, also, how careful the writing had to be about making it clear that Janet was actually somebody deserving of respect. A careless portrayal could have done a lot of harm, by showing her as a servant and nothing more.

          This is why I liked season one of Westworld. They were looking at people the way we already are, and how we treat the hosts. Later seasons were about the hosts and their choices, thus more speculative. Nothing speculative about whether humans would be cruel given the opportunity.
