  Taking the stance that artificially conscious agents should be given
human-like rights, in this paper we attempt to define consciousness, aggregate
existing universal human rights, analyze robotic laws with roots in both
reality and science fiction, and synthesize everything to create a new
robot-ethical charter. By restricting the problem-space of possible levels of
conscious beings to human-like, we succeed in developing a working definition
of consciousness for social strong AI which focuses on human-like creativity
being exhibited as a third-person observable phenomenon. Creativity is then
extrapolated to represent first-person functionality, fulfilling the
first/third-person feature of consciousness. Next, several sources of existing
rights and rules, both for humans and robots, are analyzed and, along with
supplementary informal reports, synthesized to create articles for an additive
charter which compliments the United Nation's Universal Declaration of Human
Rights. Finally, the charter is presented and the paper concludes with the
conditions for amending the charter, as well as recommendations for further
charters.
