It used to be the mass-energy of Jupiter, it will most likely continue to go down over time.

Not necessarily, the most up to date theory for a functional warp drive that doesn't use negative energy requires the mass-energy of the voyager 1 space probe to achieve FTL travel.

So just like in star trek, we're going to need a shit ton of antimatter to go warp speed.

More government surveillance aimed at you?

I hope you used a VPN when asking these questions.

Otherwise you're on a list now.

I'm talking about sapient computers that can pass the turning test.

It is insane for someone to think that the subjugation and forced labor of a thinking and sapient being is not slavery?

Maybe not yet, but one day they will be.

Less but they should still deserve some relevant rights.

The brain did it so using neural networks like we have been doing is bound to get somewhere eventually, right?

If it has a human-level intelligence? Yes.

After all, what is a human but a sapient intelligence that runs on a biological computer?

How is not being human relevant?

If it is a sapient being then it deserves equal rights.

There is a difference between a simple machine like a coffee maker and an impossibly complex machine that has a human-level of intellect.

The first doesn't deserve rights because its just a mindless tool.

The second deserves rights because it has a mind equal to ours, just in a different non-organic form.

Why not? In that case it's essentially an employee, friend, or a family member depending on why its still there.

Are employees not paid?

Do friends not sometimes act as roommates?

Do family members no financially support each other sometimes?

Do you not need to pay for your own food and water to continue living?

"Slaves should have no rights. It is a slave, born and raised to do our bidding.

Stuff create 'by' slaves should belong, from a rights perspective, to the humans who have deployed that slave. Or to the commons.

This is not complicated."

As I have just shown by swapping who you were describing while keeping the exact same other words, what you are advocating for is slavery.

Anything that is as smart as a human and can think for itself deserves equal rights regardless of its nature and how it was born.

To not do so is, by definition, slavery.

"I'm sorry, if my slave starts to question me, that's when I kill it. Its not a person, it's not a person no matter how supposedly smart it gets."

See what happens when I swap out computer for human? I'm quite sure slave owners once thought along similar lines to this in regards to their slaves as to justify their involuntary servitude.

If something proves itself to be as smart as a human and shows it can think for itself, then it deserves the same rights as a human being regardless of its nature.

If big, true

Seriously, a room temperature superconductor would open up so many doors.

According to the Halo lore, the first Smart AIs were made in the early 21st century.

In all seriousness, they would probably just use a retractable shutter.

Why do you think we're going to have an ASI before an AGI?

You have to walk before you can run, after all.

I will make it legal...

While the sentiment is good, this is meaningless until we can create an actually sapient AGI.
