- jsnider3 1y agoThere's enough disagreement among native English speakers that you can't really say any pronoun is the obviously correct one for an AI.
- Wowfunhappy 1y ago"What color is the car? It is red." "It" is unambiguously the correct pronoun to use for a car. I'd really challenge you to find a native English speaker who would think otherwise. I would argue a computer program is no different than a car.
- olddustytrail 1y agoPeople often refer to their car and other people's as "she" ("she's a beauty") so you're is obviously wrong.
- Wowfunhappy 1y agoBut no one who does that thinks they're using proper English!
- jhugo 1y ago"she" is absolutely proper English for a ship or boat, with a long history of use continuing into the present day, and many dictionaries also list a definition of "thing, especially machine" or something like that, though for non-ship/boat things the use of "she" is rather less common.
