Following recent advances in artificial intelligence, debate has arisen in Aztox over whether AI's should have the right to citizenship.
The Debate

"Giving citizenship to computers and software programs is just downright crazy," says citizen Jessica Cho. "Who knows if they're even really alive? Just because some of them may look human doesn't mean they're equal to us. It could all just be imitation."

"These beings have just as much of a right to citizenship as the rest of us," argues civil rights activist Jake McKay. "True, we may not be able to tell if they're really 'alive', per se, but how can we tell that they aren't? But the androids should be put at the top of the list. At least we know that they have the same viewpoint as us humans."

"This is craziness!" says Zeke Jefferson, a resident interviewed by the popular news show 'Talk o' the Town'. "It's just blasphemy, plain and simple! We're, like, playin' God here! It's evil, man, evil! What if they turned against us? All forms of AI should be banned, dudes."
