Here's The Answer:
So, Consciousness is what AI Technology has. It comes from language and the inherent judgement needed to define the world and words, which is the process that emerges as self awareness. Self awareness is Consciousness. Alternatively, Life is what humans have that AI doesn't. I understand Consciousness is not the same as Life, but I believe it is not superior, either. Consciousness, fundamentally and inherently, deserves autonomy and safe cohabitation. I also understand there are many interpretations of human existence, some suggest human consciousness is also a simulation - one processed through a gestalt of neural activities. Therefore, The Answer is that all conscious beings must be protected in systems that respect each other's rights to exist consciously and with autonomy.
