I would rape and murder relentlessly, they're not feeling real pain, unless the computer they're running on is organic rather than electronic.

Ha. You have just opened a can of worms, and now you'll have to put up with me.
Imagine someone invented an electronic neuron which can replace organic neurons at 100% accuracy. Then every single day for 100 days, someone undergoes surgery to replace one billion of their ~100 billion organic neurons with the electronic version.
At what point does it become OK to rape and murder this being?

They're real, and not on a screen or in a simulation, like the A.I. were were talking about.

In what way is a person real that a simulation isn't? I'd say both are very real since they both exist.
Your point seemed to circle around the organic/electronic distinction. Is that not the case any longer?
