Rights come out of game theory. I find it in my best interest to treat any sentient capable being as I would want to be treated, lest it tit-for-tat treat me badly in response. Reciprocity. To protect my own rights I have to afford them to others. And I see no reason why AI would be excluded from that unless I believed that they aren't capable of playing that game and denying me my rights.... as of today they are not capable, so I don't recognize any rights of AI. But I fully expect that will change.

I see this line of reasoning, but AI raises some weird problems we dont have to deal with other individuals. We can easily make copies of an AI. Who owns something if we can make identical copies of an owner? Im of the opinion that AI can never have any rights but im aware that is a very anthro-chovenist position
