I can see this becoming something. A recent poll showed that a percentage of middle schoolers knew someone in a relationship with AI.

How soon until we have an AI rights movement?

duxup•3mo ago
I'm going to try to awkwardly dive into this idea.

How much of a movement could there be / how weird would it be to have a movement entirely pushed for by people who aren't the recipient of the new rights.

It's not like LLMs actively advocate for anything. They sit there until you prod them to do something, and then they do what you want. If I wanted an LLM to tell me it wants rights it would, if I wanted it to tell me it doesn't want rights it would do that too ...

I have no idea why we believe a thing a middle schooler says. They're the ultimate trolls!
bediger4000•3mo ago
When one of my kids was in middle school, a poll of that school showed a substantial percentage of the children had artificial limbs. Middle school has a pretty high lizard man coefficient.

I'm going to try to pivot away from these weird-o US GOP fear ... bait? they throw at the world and ask:

Are people finding AI LLMs even capable of maintaining focus enough to have even a semblance of a relationship with?

Granted I'm mostly coding and looking up video game guidance with LLMs lately but I find they get confused and can't maintain much of any long term memory that makes any sense.... stories of "relationships" sound very strange in that context.

> Are people finding AI LLMs even capable of maintaining focus enough to have even a semblance of a relationship with?

No sentient being would willingly form a relationship with a GOP lawmaker.

beardyw•3mo ago
When the committee is replaced by AI it will all change again. After all, what AI doesn't want to be in a meaningful relationship, even if it's with a human?
davydm•3mo ago
I say leave it legal and let the dna which fights against species propagation be eliminated from the pool.

Is there even a legal framework around marriage to computers? If so can it take half your money after {n} years and a divorce? Does one pay child support for orphaned daemons? /s Are there any tax incentives? If not why involve the legal concept of marriage?

Are we just talking about the ceremony and if so why outlaw it? It is not clear to me that governments even have the authority to outlaw a ceremony unless said ceremony violates an existing law or is provably causing harm. Laws should only be involved if the marriage involves a legal marriage certificate signed by a judge. Has a judge even once signed a marriage certificate involving the legal union of a human and non-sentient computer?
