The mind uploading is just one of many potential outcomes.

To me the more interesting concern: we can't seem to agree on the bare minimum requirements for sentience/experience. Maybe the 'bare minimum' is 'electricity runs through it'. It may be that these LL/SD/ML models are having an 'experience' without the proper memory/state/internal-control to achieve sentience/consciousness.

Law's need to change, that's for sure (look at copyright).

And taking VC money to do anything Open seems like a trap. There are government grants... but yeah... there exists a whole host of (related or similar) problems in that.

Thought crime in 2084: the name given for a crime for which the only evidence is a scan of your brain.

e.g. "You imagined someone naked! That's a non-consensual deepfake of intimate personal imagery!"
