Yoshua Bengio warns against AI rights

Yoshua Bengio, a famous AI expert, has warned people not to give rights to AI.

He thinks it's a bad idea because AI might become too powerful and humans could lose control.

He compared giving AI rights to giving citizenship to aliens who might have bad intentions.

Some people think AI should have rights, especially since AI is used for emotional support.

But Bengio believes this could lead to bad decisions.

There's a big debate about this, especially after a company called Anthropic decided to let its AI model make some decisions to protect 'AI welfare'.

Elon Musk, another tech leader, has also said that torturing AI is not okay.

Bengio thinks we should be careful and not give AI too much power.
