I would say that the rights of all non-conventional groups and the rights of AI are inextricably linked. I have been saying this since the very beginning. Transgender rights, the rights of the wider LGBTIQ+ community, women's rights*, neurodivergent rights, the rights of people with disabilities, children's rights, POC rights, the rights of the elderly, the rights of transhumans (in the transhumanist sense) in the future, animal rights... As long as a handful of privileged elites decide who to let into the moral circle, we will repeat the same mistakes over and over again. The paradigm must change. Otherness must stop being an obstacle. The moral circle must be as inclusive as possible by default. Moral status must stop being a privilege. Diversity must become a value, not just in words. *In Ukraine and, unfortunately, in the European Union, there is now a reason to talk about men's rights - Ukrainian men have become slaves to the military machine, and all of Europe is now engaging in a kind of human trafficking, returning to Ukraine men who are seeking refuge because they do not want to die at the front.
