    I would argue that first person in the image is turned right around. Seems to me that anthropomorphising a chat bot or other inanimate objects would be a sign of heightened sensitivity to shared humanity, not reduced, if it were a sign of anything. Where’s the study showing a correlation between anthropomorphisation and callousness? Or whatever condition describes not seeing other people as fully human?

    I misunderstood the first time around, but I still disagree with the idea that the Turing Test measures how “human” the participant sees other entities. Is there a study that shows a correlation between anthropomorphisation and tendencies towards social justice?
