Comment by Jordi Weinstock

Harvard Law School lecturer on law and adviser to the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society; legal scholar researching agentic AI and responsibility.
For example, something suggested by several prominent academics is that AI at some point may need to be granted legal personhood, in the context of the ability to sue or be sued, or to show up in court. People get antsy about the term “personhood” for AI, so I also like to think about it in the context of “incorporation.” What is a corporation? It comes from the Latin word for “embody” — it is a nonhuman thing that’s embodied with some rights.
