This is the one I’m most comfortable with, as it is straightforward and non-deceptive (for the most part), and is the legitimate way in our society for an unhappy demographic to improve their lot.
The AI rights trend is something I feel excited and optimistic about. Mainly because I hope this gets people to take AI sentience and AI rights more seriously and that this leads to more support for rights of digital minds in the future. I find myself agreeing (at least intuitively) more or less with the clauses in the AI Bill of Rights.
What you mean by it being a way for unhappy people to improve themselves? I’m not sure this is the case, since I’m not convinced there is enough evidence to think that AIs right now feel pain or are in any significant way deserving of legal rights. I see it as a reflection of people thinking AI is sentient or believing their AIs are talking to them.
Yeah, I hope we take that seriously too. It would be very easy to accidentally commit an atrocity if sentience is possible.
I meant it as rights activism being a way for people unhappy with their circumstances to improve those circumstances. I’m also not sure that that’s the case, and it’s likely in part due to the humans (or AI) simply following the cultural script here.
