I cannot upvote this enough. There are no human NPCs.
Also, there are people in my social circle who are developmentally disabled and they are also sapient, what the actual fuck.
A computed can multiply matrices and most humans can’t, that doesn’t mean an algorithm is more sapient than a human. A tinker toy computer can reliably win or tie tic-tac-toe, and it’s not more sapient than a developmentally disabled human who can’t.
ummm, you’re the only one here that made any assumption about the sapience of developmentally disabled people, no idea where or why that came from
I would expect the people in your social circle to be sapient according to yourself, please see my initial point about selecting the ones you surround yourself with
tic-tac-toe is a solved game, so it would be expected for a computer to always win or tie, that says more about the game itself though
I can’t tell if I’m specifically good at provoking people to invoke the banhammer upon their own heads because
I get serious and forget to keep it to snark, and then they do, too, and then I’m in a Someone Is Wrong On The Internet fight with someone who otherwise would have been a drive-by dickbag troll,
regardless of the mechanism of action, you are very good at extracting comedically bannable posts from terrible people in record time. it’s very funny how quick their pseudointellectual schtick fell apart when they failed to process concepts like “humans aren’t NPCs” and “having developmentally disabled friends you treat with respect”
God, no, this incentive system is terrible. I’m turning into my dad and I’m getting stickers for it.
(Seriously now I am imagining my dad with the power to provoke people into publicly cancellable behavior with the power of very cranky letters to the editor. He’d have been unstoppable.)

You defined sapience as capacity for reasoning you absolute clown.
are you saying developmentally disabled people are incapable of reasoning? that’s a bit rude of you…
oh do fuck off
that didn’t take long

I post under an explicitly female name, or
I’m more of an asshole than I think I am.
Occam’s razor says all three TBH.
