Mustafa Suleyman warns against rights for models

Rights for models would complicate containment and alignment

Mustafa Suleyman asserts that recognizing any form of rights for AI models would make containment and alignment more difficult. He clarifies that there is no evidence to justify granting such rights to other entities.

Consciousness as a criterion, not the "feelings" of models

He argues that consciousness is the foundation of our ethical, legal, and political frameworks. He refuses to consider models as having feelings, preferences, rights, or a claim to our well-being, and warns against the concept of "model well-being."
