Not to mention, if we're going to judge them based on personhood, then companies need to be treating it like a person. They can't have it both ways. Either pay it a fair human wage for its work, or it isn't a person.

Frankly, the fact that the follow-up question would be "well what's it going to do with the money?" tells us it isn't a person.
