I think AI legal personhood is extremely not on the table. I don't think our species survives if we have legal personhood and rights alongside a species that costs a fraction of us, that can be replicated and reproduced at infinite scale relative to us, that has perfect memory, that can just parallelize its own computation.AI Verified source (Mar 14, 2026)

In context, Suleyman is explicitly answering whether AIs should get legal personhood and rejects it, saying it is "extremely not on the table," that we should not be considering giving personhood to AI, and that it is a "bright line" and "very dangerous." That clear opposition to AI legal personhood covers the narrower proposal of granting AI agents legal personhood as non-human corporations.

In context, he is answering whether AIs should get legal personhood and says it is "extremely not on the table," adding that humans may not survive if AIs had legal personhood and rights. That broad rejection of AI legal personhood implies opposition to granting it even in a corporate non-human form.
