    To me there’s a bit of a difference because humans are not controllable and cannot (legally) be slaves. So in the case of this hypothetical artificial brain, that brain could leave and take the profits of it’s work elsewhere, with the creator no longer benefiting.

      Yes, it will be interesting if a court is ever receptive to the notion that we’re creating something close to actual “consciousness”, because it does lead to ethical dilemmas very quickly.

      I think it’s probably in the tech companies’ best interests to play along with the trademark requirements and treat the AI like a tool for as long as possible.
