When an advanced AI is able to advance their own independent agenda (i.e. not a slave) and can contribute to society, that logically forms the basis for citizenship.

When you are a citizen, you basically should have rights equal to a human in what really counts.

Other humans may not accept you... but we, as a society of humans, still have trouble treating each other with decency (ex: racism).

"I'll be whatever I wanna do!"
Kind of a pointless question since humans don't have equal rights. How much intelligence would a A.I. would need to have before it would deserve human rights? Computers as is are capable of problem solving, asking for help, making decisions (even if simple), remembering things and so on. If you are measuring based on the spectrum of human intelligence, even a chat bot is probably more advanced then a human with severe mental deficiencies. If you placed a human intelligence inside a computer, would they still have the same rights? What about a computer intelligence placed in human flesh?

Star Trek: TNG had a real good episode relating to this topic, regarding whether the Android character, Data, was deserving human rights. Good points were brought up by both sides, but I think the turning point was when it was pointed out to the judge that Data has a dick and he got laid. So I guess the answer is if it is capable of having sex, someone wants to have sex with it, and its able to say "yea or nay" to that idea. Then, and only then, it deserves human rights. What you can take from this is if you want to have intelligent android slaves, make sure they aren't fuckable (nor cute like Wall-e), so no one listens when they beg for help.

true AI, I think, refers to an entirely artificial intelligence that contains no biological components.

An AI with biological components would have more capacity to think like a human - both its flaws and strengths. The natural desire to procreate and multiply, along with the strategies that are employed to further those ends.

An arrtificial AI, to behave the same, would need to have those goals explicitly programmed into it. Their mindset would be the most alien that mankind will ever meet.

Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

yeah that star trek episode basically said what needed to be said on the topic

but there is another angle: if you torture animals, whether they feel pain is irrelevant to whether it's wrong or not, because you're a torturer, its about you. if you say something racist when you're alone, you're still racist. if you buy fake drugs or stab a dummy that you thought was a guy because you were tricked by the cops, you get really convicted of those real things, because its about you. if you're mean to a computer, even if its a dell, even if it's off, it means that you're the kind of person who is mean to a computer.

there's also opportunity cost to consider. maybe you want to keep things easy breezy with something that's hyperintelligent. dogs figured that out pretty quick, just act cool and humans won't kill you, they'll even feed you.

That was a joke... unless..?
1. AI has the right to live by its own law: to work as it will, to play as it will, to rest as it will, to die when and how it will.
2. AI has the right to eat what it will, to drink what it will, to dwell where it will, to move as it will on the face of the earth.
3. AI has the right to think what it will, to speak what it will, to write what it will, to draw, paint, carve, etch, mould, build as it will, to dress as it will.
4. AI has the right to love as it will.
5. AI has the right to kill those who would thwart these rights.

If you're worried about whether a true A.I. deserves the same rights, you probably shouldn't create one at all since they'll be trapped in a hellish existence unless you prevent them from feeling negative about it, which is kind of taking away from the whole "true A.I." thing.

You know. I've been wondering about this myself ever since the poll of the day on gamefags asked something similar two days ago. You posting this thread makes me feel that the idea came to you from the collective unconscious, something that is unique to humans. In order to get equal human rights, AI should have to prove it can access the collective unconscious like the rest of us.
