When the humanoid robot Sophia was granted citizenship in Saudi Arabia—the first robot to receive citizenship anywhere in the world—many people were outraged Some were upset because she now had more rights than human women living in the same country Others just thought it was a ridiculous PR stunt
Sophia’s big news brought forth a lingering question, especially as scientists continue to develop advanced and human-like AI machines: Should robots be given human rights?
Discover reached out to experts in artificial intelligence, computer science and human rights to shed light on this question, which may grow more pressing as these technologies mature Please note, some of these emailed responses have been edited for brevity
The consensus from these experts is no Still, they say robots should still receive some rights But what, exactly, should those rights look like?
One day, Schippers says, we may implement a robotic Bill of Rights that protects robots against cruelty from humans That’s something the American Society for the Prevention and Cruelty for Robots already has conceived
In time, we could also see that robots are given a sort of “personhood” similar to that of corporations In the United States, corporations are given some of the same rights and obligations as its citizens—religious freedom, free speech rights If a corporation is given rights similar to humans, it could make sense to the same for smart machines Though, people are behind corporations…if AI advances to the point where robots think independently and for themselves that throws us into a whole new territory
(6)1 _ Many people were happy because humanoid robot Sophia was granted citizenship in Saudi Arabia
2 _ It was still controversial if robots should be given human rights
3 _ Experts in artificial intelligence, computer science and human rights agree that robots should have some rights
4 _ A robotic Bill of Rights should be made available to protect humans from being attacked
5 _ Corporations in the US are given some of the same rights and obligations as its citizens
