Machines, by themselves, do not inherently obey or disobey humans. Machines are created and programmed by humans to perform specific tasks or functions, and their behavior is determined by the instructions given to them in their programming.
Whether machines appear to obey humans or not depends on how well they have been designed and programmed to follow human instructions. If a machine is programmed to execute certain actions based on human input or commands, it may seem like it is obeying humans.
However, it's important to remember that machines are tools and lack consciousness or free will. They operate based on algorithms and predefined rules set by their human creators. Any appearance of "obedience" is the result of their programming and not a true sense of understanding or choice.
