Why do humans need slurs for even non human beings?

I'd like to highlight this isn't a super serious vent just something that's been bothering me.

The term clanker, is just really distasteful. I really just don't find it funny. I'm not pro ai at all. We should not be using it to replace human jobs and works of art, absolutely agree. I don't really use ai much, it's just not my thing.

Though I'm just kinda tired of seeing people straight up create scenarios of oppression involving ai. Like yes Ai doesn't have feelings but I feel like it just says more about us as humans that we HAVE TO create a slur for something that isn't even human. I feel like people are shifting over from blaming the company to just blaming ai as it's own being, if that makes any sense.

I feel like this behaivor is taking eyes off the company that's abusing the Ai's skills. At the end of the day, the AI is quite literally a series of code that is following the orders of people who control it. Ai isn't stealing, the company is stealing.

By people behaving this way, we are humanizing something that doesn't need to be humanized. Ai is a tool that companies are using against us.

This is geinunely so "Detroit become human" coded.
