Another humans are special and different argument.

Consider an inevitable AGI with autonomy and no ties to a corporate. Can it not learn and write text whether in conversation, creatively or academically? If it's held to the same copyright laws that humans are then of course it's fine, in my mind.

If this is still a problem then doesn't this just boil down to racism against the machine?
