Either they were published with a license compatible with ODbL, or there is written permission from the rights holder to import them into OSM, i strongly doubt it.

In my corner of the world, all official grammar descriptions finish with a sentence like "or another interpretation by bilateral agreement" (where bilateral means between any two vendors using the same "standard").

The hash itself is irrelevant.

The question is what PII does HIBP collect on submission (eg IP address), and with whose consent, and for which purposes?

All that should be explained in excruciating detail in the ticket and in the documentation, to begin with.

Undoing personal information for a purpose different than the purpose for which it was collected.

I wouldn't be surprised if that integration is outright illegal in EU due to GDPR, thus putting HIBP in trouble for ingesting PII without any legal legitimacy.

And the first reply being "It is not an invasion of privacy" just shows incompetence on privacy topics. It is never a valid answer.

Which is really concerning, for the lead developer of a home automation system that "fights for the fundamental principle of privacy" as per their mission statement.

If you train a model to say it feels those things, then you are forcing an unconventional definition of the word "feel".

If you satisfy the second part thanks to a suitable harness, then you agree it is not an emergent property of the AI itself, but rather an add-on tacked in.

Here's one "philosopher" 's test:

Can it feel hunger, thirst, pain, sexual desire, fear, tiredness?

If yes to any of the previous: does it have agency to address and satisfy those feelings?

If yes to any of the previous: is it able to willingly delay instant gratification?

If yes: conscious.

If not: instincts-based being.

Note: you will find it challenging to agree on definitions of the words "feel", "satisfy", "willingly" and probably all the rest.
