    Aren’t all humans 99.9% similar already?

    If 93% is enough you could just take any ape at that point.

      There’s no objective measure for quantifying similarity. We can measure relative similarity, though—but that scale will vary depending on what it’s relative to.

      We could measure genetic similarity relative to a typical unrelated person, or relative to the nearest non-human animal, or relative to the most distantly-related living organism, or relative to random noise. (And you can do the same for facial similarity.)

    Pro: Now he can jerk off anywhere. Anyone catches him he can be like “it’s the AI again” and the judge have to let him off.

    Lucky bastard getting of and letting off repeatedly while the rest of us over here aren’t jerking it.
