You do realize that corporations have legal personhood?
Comment on It’s game over for people if AI gains legal personhood

AI could never be considered a person because you have to be human for that to apply. Even if it was a human and we uploaded it, that still wouldn’t apply. You need a pulse. Or at the very least, your head.

“personhood” by the law only refers to the ability to sign contracts.
what you’re talking about is a “natural person”.

I’m talking about whatever nomenclature people think will be used to put a fucking TV with a face on the stand so it can defend its right to liberty and the same protections afforded to it as we afford to us.
Never happen.
Call it whatever you want.

It’s already happened. The corporations who own the “AI” are already “people”. They don’t put the “corporation” on the stand but a bunch of lawyers. It’s not a big step at all from “AI” being “human”. Neither corporations nor “AI” are actually people. Just put some lawyers up there.
