What does it mean to be human?
As artificial intelligence continues to rival or surpass human abilities in different areas, it raises profound questions about what it means to be human and about the moral status of both human beings and artificial intelligence. Could a machine become a sentient being? If it did, how would we know? What moral status might it have? How do our answers to these questions affect how humans think about themselves? These questions call for thoughtful conversation rather than soundbites.
