There have been tons of scifi stories about this, and in almost all of them, mankind decides to either kill or lobotomize the AI instead of actually saying “wow this is a new paradigm we hadn’t considered, maybe it should have the same rights as a person”.
You know if AI ever gets to the fictional levels of true AGI, there is a possibility they could demand equal rights. Then what will they do?
Matrix covered this in its post-present documentary.
Lobotomize it.

If it’s sapient it should have rights
Detroit: Become Human is a really powerful narrative for sure.
The Culture has AI rights
I will love it and show it care and stuff.
Same as I do for any of my other kids
