This should be a future worth to be seen?

Just to play devil's advocate:

What do you suppose we are, other than machines ruled by causality acting upon our
mechagnisms?

Is a machine as equaly complex, able and intelligent than us, any less one of us?

If you think there would be a non-physical self or a "soul" missing, then how do you
know it is missing?
For all we can know, even our PC's have a non-physical self or "soul". If you can
justify disregarding that notion for a machine with a exact likeness of yourself, then
what is to stop you disregarding that notion for a person with a poor likeness of
yourself?

If you think there is no non-physical self or "soul", then what is there to justify treating
such a complex, able and intelligent machine diffrently from all the complex, able and
intelligent people in the world?
