responsibility/culpability. What does an algorithm minimally have to
have before it reaches this point?
The ability to learn?
Understanding of the consequences of its actions?
Rights that it cares about?
Personhood?
I am most interested to hear the thoughts of others on this list on
this question.
The ability to have an AI's future behavior changed by us, the
community, assigning responsibility. Note that this assumes there is a
community of intelligent beings, so it's not just a matter of
influencing the single AI; rather it's enforcing a rule so that all the
intelligent beings in the community will be influenced.
