I absolutely agree that it's reasonable to assume that zero of them are persons today, so far.

What about more advanced ones that have yet to be invented? Will they be persons once they're built?

(For clarity I want to make sure you know I'm talking about de facto personhood as independent agents with careers and histories and not legal recognition as persons. Human history is full of illustrative examples of humans who didn't have legal personhood.)
