Do you know a good #essay or #text discussing this discrepancy:
People refering to #animals or #plants with gender (she/he/they instead of 'it') or discussing #personhood of #nature (environmental personhood: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environmental_personhood ) are often accused of #anthropomorphism, while it seems completely normal for many to refer to #AI like a person. And #intelligence is quickly adopted for AI but not enough researched/seen in animals.
I'm searching for human-made material only!
