First ever post of mine on the RMB and I would like to discuss about something fun (in my point of view): I'm sure some of our nation had provided androids/robots local citizenships. Since they are our citizens, wouldn't it be "inhumane" if we exploit the use of robots, androids and artificial intellegence on our scientific/industrial activities? Does it count as slavery or something? Just a bit curious
The Roxium Federation does not consider robots, androids, and AI to be "people", meaning it does not count as slavery. In general, the Roxium Federation has a distrust of sentient AI due to a few incidents, with one of the more infamous ones being the Cobalt Project Incident.
In Sparanoda, there are meticulous tests to determine if an AI is self-aware or sentient. IF it is, it can apply for citizenship and has protection from involuntary servitude. Non-self-aware and non-sentient AI/robots have no rights.

In Deuschmailt an AI/android/robot would not count as a sentient being, being exploited to its fullest. It is in Deuschmailt, therefore not slavery
Due to the advanced technology in WonGya, AI personhood has long been a policy here. AI-driven robots have all the rights and privileges of a human citizen and serve in government, industry and co-exist with regular human citizens.

Interesting...so far we have a 50-50 split in AI citizenship. WonGya, you could make a poll at some point about what the nations of the Cape have legislated concerning AI citizenship. It serves no practical purpose, but it would be neat to know.

Azulakas prohibits the creation of such advancement in AI, therefore avoiding the moral question of rights by not creating unnatural beings to give rights too.
AI beings in our nation have more rights than the scum that call themselves humans. They are free of disease, logical in their thinking and more durable than the useless meatbags we have.

Slick river canyon's official policy is that if it can't think, it's a machine and so doesn't have rights, and if it can think, it's a person and so doesn't have rights.
This pretty much sums up Roxium AI research after the Cobalt Project Incident. Even though the Roxium Federation does not consider robots/androids/AIs to be sentient, it is possible for a self-aware AI to become a Roxium citizen. Do note however that the Articles of Equality does not cover AIs, meaning it is perfectly legal for businesses to discriminate against them. Also note that all the self-aware AIs in the Roxium Federation were not created by the Roxium Federation.
