Rights of AIs in far future

We've just started 36th century, humanity is colonizing stars right and left. Technology is well developed, you know, typical Sci-Fi stuff.

In 23rd century we finally were able to create true AI. But creation of it was only start of troubles. As AIs are definately different from humans, and were made by humans, initially any AI free to live within society experienced much prejudice and general discrimination.

You might think, "Hey, it's perfect scenario for robot uprising", but not this time. AIs are not stupid, and realise that fighting with your creator and peak of biological evolution sitting on 3.6 billion years old pile of skulls of inferior species isn't brightest idea. That's why they had opted for peaceful cooperation and more legal ways of obtaining rights.

Question: How would those rights differ from those of normal human?

About AI:

• Typical they are as smart as very smart human.
• On average there is one AI for every 1 000 humans.
• There is something called of AI Core. Consider it a black box. It's central part of any AI; destroying it or damaging would result in death; it needs to be powered to operate; you cannot copy nor move specific AI from it's core; it sizes are around 20cmX20cmX20cm.
• On normal day AI core is inside of powerful stationary computer, but when social interactions are needed they transfer to android body.
• They have somewhat similar psychology as humans. Most emotions are similar, they also can get mentally ill or have other problems.
• They can be smarter or dumber, it all depend on their starting learning processes.
• They can have personal development, changing personality or learning new things.
• Their ways of abstract thinking are somewhat different than human ones (so neither could replace very well other).
• When connected to more powerful hardware, AI can much more intuitively manipulate, review or analyze data then any human.

Some extra info about humans from far future:

• They don't age, medicine eradicated almost any biological problems of human body.
• Quite open minded, mostly liberal.
• Almost everyone lives in good conditions, basic stuff is dirt cheap.
• Physical work didn't disappear, it dud become more specialized although.
• There is one government, mostly representative democracy mixed with technocracy and socialism.

P.S. Sorry for butchering language.
