They are a hunk of metal and wires. Animals are living and deserve more rights. If you're actually supporting the idea to give pieces of metal rights then give rocks, sand, fire, etc equal rightsHumans are an amalgamation of factors which gives rise to intelligence and emotion. If a robot is capable of reaching such a conclusion with a different amalgamation, the situation remains the same.Thank you for condensing my paragraphs.

Definitely. Here's a followup question though: if we somehow had the capability to clone or grow non-sentient animals in the homo genus (basically the nearest ancestor to humans that did not have sentience or sapience), would it be unethical to use them as slave labor in the same way we use machines?
It would be unethical to take their sentience.
You are, though. You're breeding a species with no sentience that would have it otherwise.

In this scenario, we're using the nearest ancestor to modern humans that didn't have sentience. As in, they didn't have sentience when they existed. They weren't sentient. They never had sentience. Sentience was not an attribute of this species. You can't take away something they never had. They're incapable of sentience. Sentience is not applicable to this species.Honestly I have no idea how to make this more clear.Calm the fuck down bro. I thought you meant taking away their sentience. And either way it's still wrong because slave labor is wrong.

There has never been an archaic human of any sort without sentience.

Robots only know what they are programmed to know, unless they some how obtain the level of self-awareness and perform actions that they were not programmed with or to do then all they will be are subjects to human controlWhat the fuck is wrong with you?How about you go spread some mineral equal rights?You should be shot.You should be educated, idiot.
