So what makes us human? What if I replace a severed arm, or a bad heart, or a diseased brain. At what point does someone start/stop as a human. If we imagine one step further, a completely constructed person... does that entity deserve the same rights?

I think that saving the Geth was the right choice. My wife thinks machines are just machines. This is a source of contention in our relationship.

in america, corporations have the same rights as humans in the eyes of the law, and they are way dumber than A.I., so i would say yes.

Not even humans have the same rights as other humans.

AI should just be treated as a poor human. So no rights.

But if AI had the same rights as humans, programming pony-bots to want nerd dick would be like psychological grooming, so they'd all go to prison. Problem solves itself really.

doesn't matter what makes you a human. the question is "what makes something a person?" you wouldn't deny rights to the aliens that abducted and interbred with our simian ancestors.
