An AI with 1. capacity to create accurate complex models of self and the environment 2. find exploits in those models for goal directed responses 3. has the capability to adaptively alter the environment and self... will likely produce an AI that seeks self survival. What then?
I think that you make an important point but that is usually included in what we mean by attention. (Arguably, the concept of attention eg in the Transformer as tracking identity is much more impoverished than that.)

Yes, attention as data analyzed for self relevance is usually implied, but the realization that all naturally occurring systems are essentially self survival systems from cells all the way up to collective human group functioning seems to get lost along the way.

The implication for AI and rights for robots is a similar collection of sensors, complexity of processes and responses would result in similar self survival behaviors. Attention is simply a by product of this functioning. It is the majority signal being processed.
