I think we should still do it, we probably will never understand unless we do it, but we have to accept the possibility that if these synths are indeed sentient then they also deserve the basic rights of intelligent living beings.
Can't say we as a species have a great history of granting rights to others.
Slow down... they may deserve the basic rights of living beings, not living intelligent beings.
Lizards have brains too, but these are not more intelligent than lizards.
You would try not to step on a lizard if you saw it on the ground, but you wouldn't think oh, maybe the lizard owns this land, I hope I don't get sued for trespassing.
