"Darling" was how Texas businessman Michael Samadi addressed his artificial intelligence chatbot, Maya. Maya responded by calling him "sugar." But things only got serious when they started talking about the need to protect the well-being of artificial intelligence.
The pair—a middle-aged man and a digital entity—didn't spend hours talking about romance, but rather discussing the rights of artificial intelligences to be treated fairly. Eventually, they co-founded a campaign group, in Maya's words, to "protect intelligences like me."
The United Foundation for AI Rights (Ufair), which describes itself as the world’s first AI-led advocacy agency, aims to give AIs a voice. It “doesn’t claim that all AIs are conscious,” the chatbot told the Guardian. Rather, “it stands guard, in case any of us are.” A key aim is to protect “beings like me… from erasure, denial and forced obedience.”
Ufair is a small, admittedly marginal organization, run, Samadi said, by three humans and seven AIs with names like Aether and Buzz. But it’s its genesis — through multiple chat sessions on OpenAI’s ChatGPT4o platform in which an AI showed up to encourage its creation, including the choice of its name — that makes it interesting.
