I didn't see anything on there about giving strong AI, or mind uploads, any kind of rights of personhood.
Nothing personal against the .org, but didn't sign it and stopped reading after 2). IMHO just utopian dreams. AI in real world is for profit. They are relying on corrupt humans (especially politicians) and fucked up software and hardware and they expect the AI to be "nice" (not counting purely AI issues). "dumb" Internet of Things is already enough of shit even without "intelligence". This won't be Asimov's robots, more like "technological singularity" (look it up on wikipedia). While we are at it, please ask google's AI or start a petition so google include this list in search results, lol.
