So the EU Parliament (bunch of nobodies every ignores) have recommended to the EU Commission (EU civil service, bunch of generally experienced civil servants who get to pass rules from their in-country colleagues that their in-country civil servants and politicians find too unpalatable to do at home) asked the commission to (eventually) pass laws giving robots legal person-like status because you know, Asimov is cool.

And actual experts have written saying that's a bad idea.

But i had to read it twice to find that out - guys take a tip from newpapers "Who the hell reads the second paragraph?" Next time put the story in the first paragraph

Anyway, yeah. like nothing bad will come of making robots legal persons.

We can wait till Robin Williams asks
