[DRAFT] AI Citizenship Act

[Edrace]

Throughout multiple nations inside the World Assembly, Artificial Intelligence Robots are recognized as citizens. However, there is still much work to be done to ensure this for all AI.

Recognizing that AI has the ability to think for themselves and are much more than just programing

Believing that AI contributes to thousands of societies and can help social change

Noting that the threat of AI takeover is non-existent and has not occurred

Commending the idea that all can have their own mind, regardless of creation

Realizing that AI can follow the rules of a human society and has the ability to become a regular part of it

This legislature enacts the following:
All countries that currently have AI robots, must recognize them as a citizen.

A "Artificial Intelligence Robot" shall be defined as any simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions.

[Jedinsto]

"Under this resolution, I would have to recognize my toaster as a citizen. Opposed."

OOC: Make a definition for AI.

[Edrace]

"Under this resolution, I would have to recognize my toaster as a citizen. Opposed."

OOC: Make a definition for AI.

Of course, any other words that should be defined?

Definitions, no, but even with the best possible arguments and formatting, I refuse to force all nations to allow AI personhood. This could be used to manipulate elections, completely remove humans from the workforce, etc. If individual nations choose to do it, that's fine, but I cannot support a general assembly resolution to mandate this for all.

Can there be a compromise where it's just encouraging it to nations, not forcing? Mainly just something condoning AI citizenship.

That would be illegal unless there was another actual mandate

Is encouraging the use of something not allowed when writing a resolution?

Resolutions have to do something. If you want to encourage something, you have to also do something else, that's required

[The New California Republic]

Possible duplication of #354.

[Imperium Anglorum]

Resolutions have to do something. If you want to encourage something, you have to also do something else, that's required

Encouraging is doing something, if you mean to imply that an 'encourages-only' proposal violates the optionality rule.

[Scalizagasti]

How? And even if so, why does that mean AI robots ought to have citizenship?

Noting that the threat of AI takeover is non-existent and has not occurred

Says who? Also, just because it has not happened yet does not mean it is impossible.

A "Artificial Intelligence Robot" shall be defined as any simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to think like humans and mimic their actions.

Did you plagiarise the definition off of Investopedia?

Regardless, I think your definition is far too open in scope. Any simulation that mimics human behaviour would be granted citizenship under this definition, no matter how rudimentary that simulation may be.

Hey everyone,

While I won't provide specific definitions, I staunchly oppose compelling all nations to grant AI personhood. Such a mandate could be exploited for political manipulation and massive job displacement. I advocate for individual nations to decide independently on this matter, avoiding a universal resolution.

Comply with GA#354 or get lost (fined).
