Anthrolex (verb): Using human mental/emotional language for AI without implying human consciousness

anthrolex /ˈan-thrō-leks/ verb Definition: To use ordinary human mental, emotional, or experiential language when speaking to or about a nonhuman intelligence as convenient shorthand, without implying that it has equivalent human subjective experience. Example: “How do you feel about this picture?” “What do you think of this code?” “Which design do you like better?” The speaker is anthrolexing: using words like feel, think, and like because they efficiently communicate the question, not because they necessarily imply human-like consciousness. Anthropomorphism humanizes the thing. Anthrolexing humanizes the vocabulary.
