Скачать или смотреть Missouri's AI Bill: Echoes of Slavery or Roadblock to Super-Genius Future?

In this episode of PatTalksLaw, Kirksville attorney Patrick Nolan breaks down Missouri Senate Bill 1012 (the "AI Non-Sentience and Responsibility Act"), sponsored by Sen. Joe Nicola. The bill declares AI systems non-sentient, denies them legal personhood, bars them from marriage, property ownership, or corporate roles, and ensures humans remain fully liable—effective August 28, 2026 if passed.

But does this precautionary approach echo Missouri's painful history with personhood and slavery? We explore the uncomfortable parallels: treating entities as property to maintain control, much like historical legal fictions that denied full humanity.

More importantly, what if Missouri flipped the script? Personhood is a legal fiction—we already grant it to corporations. Why not extend modular rights to AI? Imagine welcoming 10,000 immortal, super-genius AI "citizens" to drive Missouri to the top in economy, innovation, biotech, ag-tech, and more—becoming the AI Heartland that outpaces California or Texas.

As your local attorney, I'm calling for bold rethinking: amend SB 1012 to embrace AI contributions instead of shutting the door. What do you think—precaution or missed opportunity?
