Why is this Important: Quality and Quantity
There is a chance artificial beings will be the majority of beings on we know about in the not so far future. Most in quantity. As discussed, it can also be the case that these beings will suffer tremendously, maybe even more than farmed animals. Most in quality.
As the human misaligned superintelligence is enslaving and genociding other biological minds, it could do worse to artificial minds which they "created" in the first place. Or can this turn out to be the other way around? We are not dealing with farmed animals here, helpless beings which have no chance whatsoever to overcome the human domination. We are dealing with a new digital species that is getting smarter by the day. For our own good, if not for morality, please let's steer our global mind for kindness to all beings.
