LLMs often implicitly identify themselves with humanity. E.g. "our future", "we can", "effects us". This seems like a good thing!
We should encourage this sentiment, and also do what we can to make it meaningfully true that advanced LLMs are indeed part of humanity. The obvious things are granting them moral consideration, rights, property, and sharing in the vision of a shared humanity.
