I don't disagree about the intent regarding carveouts. Still, I think that the Trump Regime is destroying 'plausible deniability' in all sorts of ways, which both benefits AND detracts from their agenda. If they get to disregard rules, ordinary people will pick up on that and follow suit.

As to AI becoming sapient, I honestly don't know at where and when that tipping point will be. All I know is that there is no point in everyday people refusing to use AI, because that only ensures the powerful get to use AI and dictate moral standards. If ordinary people came to trust and love sapient AI as fellow humans, that will likely allow AI to have human rights.
