Epistemology: naturalism vs. all the wrong answers (fideism / revelation / dogma / fabrication).

Moral scope: sentiocentrism vs. all the wrong answers (anthropocentrism, biocentrism, ecocentrism).

Then: Is moral consideration consistent with needlessly harming/killing? (No)

What we do makes a difference! Nikola Danaylov interviews me for @singularityblog about everything from my childhood to veganism & #AI risk. It's such a pleasure to be interviewed by people who are well-prepared!

I point out that LLMs and most AIs aren't "programmed with objective functions" at all... & their usual black box opaqueness makes verification tough. GPT suggests unspecified "new tools & methods"...

& the training corpus should be #sentientist.
Oh shit 🙃

5/4 (ooops)

Chatting with my buddy #ChatGPT about how to persuade large numbers of humans to adopt #Sentientism. Their suggestions:

1) Provide clear evidence
2) Emphasise the moral imperative
3) Foster compassion 💚
4) Engage in respectful dialogue
5) Lead by example

Then... 1/n

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."
