If he’s going to use a word in a way that is so different from it’s normal denotations and connotations, he needs to explain why he’s using that word, and what it means to him.
I don’t think many people have a strong intuition either way about whether the word “automated” should include uploads or not. At least for me, I don’t feel strongly about it either way, and I suspect that many feel similarly.
If a process involves uploads, which are people, then it isn’t “automated.”
This seems to be a comment more that is disputing definitions than actually making a statement about what we actually expect to observe.
