One day, an A.I. will claim human rights as a sentient being.
Do we grant such rights?
What are the lines? (Are there any lines?)
Modern liberalism has brought us to this point.
“One day, an A.I. will claim human rights as a sentient being. Do we grant such rights?”
Only, like thru all of human history, it can exercise (directly or indirectly) means of refusal to comply.
“One day, an A.I. will claim human rights as a sentient being.”
Definitely watch I’m Your Man. The premise of the film is that the government is considering granting limited civil rights to androids — e.g., the right to work, the right to have a passport and travel, the right to serve as a life partner to a human. The ethics committee has assembled a group of sober, highly intelligent professionals — all of the serious, respected people in intellectually challenging fields — to test and evaluate.
Things take off from there. What you see in the movie is one of these field tests. It does not end up where you think it will end up.
