You'll get no arguments from me on the need to refine the rights of life as we expand our society. I am merely pointing out that if we want to extend any rights or protections to AI we need to define a model outside the corpus of law protecting humans. That will take time and will be a slow process. My only point here is that in its current state AI does not qualify for any rights or protections related to humans and how they function in society.
