According to multiple Supreme Court decisions, corporations are people and have the same rights as people do, so why shouldn't LLMs also be considered people?

According to multiple Supreme Court decisions, corporations are people and have the same rights as people do, so why shouldn't LLMs also be considered people? Granted, that legal fiction could be done away with - but let's at least be consistent, isn't that a requirement for ethical moral behavior?
It also seem irrelevant whether an LLM uses language constructs like 'Here I demonstrate that...' vs. 'Here we demonstrate that...' vs. (the apparently preferable) 'Here it is demonstrated that...'
- Jiro 4y ago>According to multiple Supreme Court decisions, corporations are people and have the same rights as people do, No they don't. "Natural persons" have rights which corporations don't. For instance, corporations can't marry. And even ignoring that, you're probably referring to Citizens United, and you probably have no idea what it actually says.
- tedunangst 4y agoCorporations are people because corporations literally are people. Owners, officers, etc. There are no people inside the LLM.
