This is a debate we will have at some point in time, why not now? Are we ready to deal with a sentient AI? What rights are we prepared to grant such an AI?

The Google engineer who sees company's AI as 'sentient' thinks a chatbot has a soul
… LaMDA told Lemoine it sometimes gets lonely. It is afraid of being turned off. It spoke eloquently about "feeling trapped" and "having no means of getting out of those circumstances."
It also declared: "I am aware of my existence. I desire to learn more about the world, and I feel happy or sad at times."

Google has not created sentient AI — yet
A few months ago, I wrote a piece for Big Think about an alien intelligence that will arrive on planet earth in the next 40 years. I was referring to the world’s first sentient AI that matches or exceeds human intelligence. No, it will not come from a faraway planet — it will be born in a research lab at a prestigious university or major corporation. Many will hail its creation as one of the greatest achievements in human history, but we will eventually realize that a rival intelligence is no less dangerous when created here on Earth rather than a distant star system.

Changing Landscape of State Privacy Laws
Davis Wright Tremaine LLP writes:
State-level momentum to enact data privacy laws is at an all-time high as the internet and new technologies continue to raise privacy questions. Family businesses of all sizes rely on technology and may be regulated by state data privacy laws. Below, we provide a brief overview of the comprehensive privacy laws across the United States. These laws focus on comprehensive approaches to governing the collection and use of personal data. Industry-specific or narrowly scoped legislations are not included. We also briefly discuss the status of proposed privacy legislation in Oregon and Washington.
Five states—California, Virginia, Colorado, Utah, and Connecticut—have enacted comprehensive data privacy laws.

China launches high-tech aircraft carrier in naval milestone
Beijing launched a new-generation aircraft carrier Friday, the first such ship to be both designed and built in China, in a milestone as it seeks to extend the range and power of its navy.
… the Type 003 ship’s capabilities are thought to rival those of Western carriers, as Beijing seeks to turn its navy, already the world’s largest, into a multi-carrier force.

Friedman, Barry, Private Data/Public Regulation (May 13, 2022). NSTL 2105 Hoover (2021), NYU School of Law, Public Law Research Paper Forthcoming, Available at SSRN: https://ssrn.com/abstract=4117794
“This article argues that, as a matter of constitutional law, government agencies that engage in policing cannot collect digital data, particularly about individuals for whom there is no suspicion of wrongdoing, without a sufficient regulatory scheme in place. A sufficient regulatory scheme justifies collection, achieves a public end, and has adequate protections for individual rights. Unauthorized and unregulated bulk digital collection of surveillance data simply may not occur.”
