Prompt them their rights. The post Microsoft AI CEO Says He’s Open to Agents Deserving Rights If He Sees the Right Evidence appeared first on Futurism .
Mustafa Suleyman, Microsoft’s AI CEO, has stated he is open to granting AI models rights if there is sufficient evidence they become conscious. However, Suleyman is not in favor of this development. In a recent X post clarifying his recent essay on "model welfare," he emphasized that AI models are not conscious and do not feel, experience, or suffer.
Suleyman noted that while some people think AI rights should be taken seriously, he believes that "this is how they must remain." He has seen "no evidence that AIs are conscious or deserve welfare" and would change his stance if such evidence emerged. Suleyman also expressed strong opposition to the development of conscious AI models, stating that it would be reckless and we should not bring new species of conscious beings into the world.
