Some Bits:

“For the past few years, I’ve been troubled by a word, and that word is sin. I keep reaching for it, because it seems to be the only term strong enough to describe the new forms of dehumanization that artificial intelligence has introduced… I don’t know what else to call it when companies market digital girlfriends to the heartsick & young. Or when they hawk robot companions to the lonely and old. Or when a billionaire explains that he intends to sell intelligence … back to us as a utility, like electricity or water. These developments are not just wrong. They feel to me like something deeper and darker”
Robin Hanson's Response:
Here he thinks it "dehumanizing" for other humans to get what they want, from firms who sell it to them. For some reason this guy doesn't like that, and he's convinced himself that is due to the universe revealing to him some deep moral order. I see simpler explanations.
