Humans are machines, you know. Only we're biological instead of mechanical. Theoretically speaking once we reach the technological singularity we will have AIs that are more aware than us. They will look at us similar to how we look at a remote or something, literally more human than we are.

But all that aside, what about an actual human brain with the super realistic body of a robot?

Real actual being thats not a robot, or nothing at all.

I already read a book about that and it was super creepy and wierd.
and it hits like a brick to the back of your head. like, goodbye, five times.
one for each finger.
and you say,
"my, my, the ways i've changed since then--the ways i've changed."
and all i ever say is,
"i'm tired."

What makes a biological being any more real? And a robot may actually end up being more similar to us than aliens, because for all we know aliens could be made of pure energy or something.

So? I think an alien would be better because its a real thing not manufactured.

How they are made shouldn't make a difference. We're "manufactured" ourselves only it's biological. Everything has to be made somehow.

Personally I don't really care but it's interestIng to think about. If it feels and thinks like a human is it any less qualified to count as a sentient being?

So if they are actually more human like than any alien, why still count them out?

On the same note, so do humans now that I think about it. You can't trust anyone.
