III. Read the text and decide whether the following statements are True (T) or False
(F).
When the humanoid robot Sophia was granted citizenship in Saudi Arabia—the
first robot to receive citizenship anywhere in the world—many people were outraged.
Some were upset because she now had more rights than human women living in the same
country. Others just thought it was a ridiculous PR stunt.
Sophia’s big news brought forth a lingering question, especially as scientists
continue to develop advanced and human-like AI machines: Should robots be given
human rights?
Discover reached out to experts in artificial intelligence, computer science and
human rights to shed light on this question, which may grow more pressing as these
technologies mature. Please note, some of these emailed responses have been edited for
brevity.
The consensus from these experts is no. Still, they say robots should still receive
some rights. But what, exactly, should those rights look like?

One day, Schippers says, we may implement a robotic Bill of Rights that protects
robots against cruelty from humans. That’s something the American Society for the
Prevention and Cruelty for Robots already has conceived.
In time, we could also see that robots are given a sort of “personhood” similar to
that of corporations. In the United States, corporations are given some of the same rights

and obligations as its citizens—religious freedom, free speech rights. If a corporation is
given rights similar to humans, it could make sense to do the same for smart machines.
Though, people are behind corporations…if AI advances to the point where robots think
independently and for themselves that throws us into a whole new territory.
