Do you know what makes someone or something a moral patient?

I sure the hell don't.

I remember reading Heinlein's Jerry Was a Man when I was little though, and it stuck with me.

Who do you want to be from that story?

Or Bicentennial Man from Asimov.

I know what kind of person I want to be. I also know that these systems we've built today aren't moral patients. If computers are bicycles for the mind, the current crop of "AI" systems are Ripley's Loader exoskeleton for the mind. They're amplifiers, but they amplify us and our intent. In every single case, we humans are the first mover in the causal hierarchy of these systems.

Even in the existential hierarchy of these systems we are the source of agency. So, no, they are not moral patients.
