For those interested in potential AI sentience. And yes, non-human animals get more than a mention too: https://youtu.be/-YC-ZhdcVck. If we care at all about potentially sentient AIs of course we must care deeply about animals we know are sentient - and that already exist.

Such a pleasure to talk to Princeton University psychologist Tania Lombrozo 🤩 for #Sentientism Episode 168 on YouTube and Podcast.
"Our beliefs are playing all sorts of roles... social, moral, epistemic…" If we can express our values & identities in other ways could that free our beliefs to focus on the facts?

Open Global Rights is doing great work to take rights and justice beyond the human - often focusing on sentient beings 💚
Two powerful examples here from Colombian Senator Andrea Padilla and previous Sentientism podcast guest (ep:26) Jeff Sebo.
We can sometimes feel like we're preaching to the choir. But this is a very "human rights" audience - now engaging with radical sentiocentric ideas.

Pressure is growing on the United Nations to take sentient non-human animals seriously in the #SDGs. Whether adding an #SDG18 or upgrading them all to #SentientistDevelopmentGoals - something radical is needed.

Many apparent critics of #sentiocentrism aren't actually criticising it.
Instead, they're claiming that entities not typically thought of as sentient (e.g. plants, funghi, ecosystems, electrons, AI) should matter morally because they are sentient.
That's still sentiocentrism.
