Most discussions of AI’s impact, and of the ethical questions raised, are about impacts on humans. This discussion will investigate and evaluate AI’s impacts on two classes of nonhuman beings: potentially sentient or conscious AI, and nonhuman animals. Drawing on existing impacts on animals, the event will seek to broaden AI ethics beyond our own species.

Speakers: Kristin Andrews, Jonathan Birch, Nicholas Bostrom (virtual), Jeff Sebo, and Tse Yip Fai. 

Chair: Peter Singer
