People rightly arguing against the horror of octopus farming are, whether they realise it or not, arguing against all sentient animal agriculture.

We just need to open our eyes and minds to see clearly - then care and act. It can be done. Millions are doing it.

Yep - compassion alone is not enough.

We also need a commitment to good quality evidence and reasoning.

That’s why the #sentientism worldview is “evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings”.

George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot

In all the fields I work in, I now see empiricism swamped by wishful thinking, and real scandals drowned out by empty conspiracy theories.
The world is dividing between those who accept evidence and those who reject it. I fear that the first group is becoming a minority.

Moral consideration of AI does require a particular focus.

But focusing too tightly on AI might mean people forget about all the other sentient beings (something Jacy & @SentienceInst don't do 💚).

People love having excuses to forget about all the other sentient beings.

My new essay @TheHill argues we need an AI rights movement. AIs are no longer just tools. They are quickly becoming digital minds integrated in society as friends and coworkers. The future turns on whether and how we include them in the moral circle. 🧵https://thehill.com/opinion/cybersecurity/3914567-we-need-an-ai-rights-movement/

It's not enough to persuade people that #Sentientism's "evidence, reason and compassion for all sentient beings" is a good worldview.

We need to help them align their psychology, social norms and institutions with it.

The latter is harder than the former.

Do wild animals matter? What (if anything) should we do about it?

Fascinating thesis by @ludwig_raal taking a #Sentientist approach re: wild animal ethics: https://scholar.sun.ac.za/handle/10019.1/124595

"Better Never to Have Been in the Wild: A Case for Weak Wildlife #Antinatalism."

Such a pleasure to talk to Nicolas Treich @Treich13 yesterday about the new field of #SentientistEconomics.

(Yes, every field of human thought is improved by putting "#Sentientist" in front of it 🙂)

Out soon on the #Sentientism YouTube & Podcast.
