AI

An atlatl is not an arm. That's my current view of the state of things, and I still regard AI as Assisted Intelligence. There is no reason to push my analogy further, stating that an atlatl could never become an arm. That might turn out to be the case, but we can't know from here.

Not an arm in the sense of the word 'arm' as an upper limb between the shoulder and hand.
Arguably an arm in the sense of being a tool used in causing injury.
