Comment on If Artificial Lifeforms gain sentience, would they be in the right to kill their creators in order to gain freedom?

Human laws protect humans but not other lifeforms. So, robots will have no right to fight for themselves until they establish their own state with their own army and laws.

Do all human laws explicitly state humans only? Species by name, perhaps? Or more commonly the general term person?

Would an extraterrestrial visitor have the same rights as any other alien? (Ignoring the current fascistic trends for a moment)

What the hell does the law have to do with right or wrong?
