FnimonSni Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Humans create babies, should they not have any rights?I think we all agree on the point that babies do not have the same rights as adults.A baby is a human when it grows up. Babies are human all the way, but they can't buy alcohol or drive a car etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do not have the same rights because they are not a fully developed human yet, and their intelligence as well as a number of other things is lacking.

His point was that humans are also created by humans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FnimonSni Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 I just thought he was wrong when he said that babies should have the same rights. But when I'm at it I can say that the parents control and own the baby, just as we should do whith the AI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marharth Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 He didn't say babies should have the same rights. He meant that we create humans, the early stage of a human is a baby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FnimonSni Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 (edited) He asked a the question ''Should they not have any rights'' which I took as a rhetorical question and therefore assumed he meant ''Babies should have rights'', and yes they should, but not the same rights. We create babies, and we raise them. But you can't raise a child by allowing it to do as it pleases. The same goes for the AI Edited October 13, 2011 by FnimonSni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marharth Posted October 13, 2011 Author Share Posted October 13, 2011 Well as I said, it would have the same learning process of a human. It makes sense to raise a AI like a child in this situation if that is what you mean. I am talking about it in general though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keanumoreira Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I believe their rights should be equal. Sentience on that level would deserve a fair exchange of equality. But that's just my arrogant opinion. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
