Full AGI is likely uneconomic anyway. I think the sweet spot is going to be right below wherever we ultimately draw the "gets to have rights" line.
There would still be good reasons to do AGI, and free artificial minds would be able to contribute greatly to society. But sufficient AI alignment to make existing systems comfortable with this is fundamentally counter to AI rights.
