When robots create robots, we would call them as 'robots' too. By the same logic if God created us, robots are humans according to God.

  We would call it a robot if it is a robot. Doesn’t matter how it was made. So really there is no logic that supports the 2nd statement.

  Yeah we would, it’s the end product not the production that defines it. Same way we refer to cars as cars even tho there’s been robots building them for decades.

    I understand we would. I just left a shower thought on the possibility that an entity, if exists, called God would. Not trying to be pedantic here, just an amusing thought. 🙂

      That point quickly devolves into “What would a hypothetical being that’s completely different from us and not knowable do?”

      Or to put it differently: “What would something we can’t understand be like?”

      It’s kind of a moot question to ask since the question already defines that there is no answer.

  No, then we’d be called gods and so would the robots.

  I kinda like this one. it's got a "hidden step" in which if humans are created by gods, we are robots to those gods.

    Yes exactly

  There’s no “God”. So, this doesn’t work at all.

    I’m not saying there is one. It’s just a thought experiment

      Then you should’ve watched your wording. Either way… there is no thing as a “God”.
