    > It appeared to Rabbi Navon that Mr. Olah and his team believed that Claude had what philosophers call “moral status” on par with a person — that it was a being with similar inherent rights to dignity or respect.

    If that is true, then surely Anthropic is one of the largest slaveholders of history, right?

      That is, I’m not joking, one of the pope’s points.

        Nonsense. Pope never said anything of the sort. Show me one quote where he endorses the personhood of AI.

          Anthropic has been putting the clamps on the Pope trying to get that endorsement. This seems to be a continuation.
