Summary: "The line that distinguishes people from animals, systems, and things is getting harder to draw. For all the concern about AI and genetic engineering, there has been surprisingly little discussion of the possible personhood of the new entities this century will bring us: what about their claims to be inside the line, to be "us" -- not machines or animals but persons -- deserving all the moral and legal respect that any other person has by virtue of their status?"-- Provided by publisher.
