2024 AI, Animals, and Digital Minds

June 3-5, 2024

Thank you for everyone who attended the 2024 conference and retreat! If you missed the event or want to catch up, consider watching the session recordings or reading our retrospective.

Conference

This 1 day conference followed in the footsteps of the October 2023 Artificial Intelligence, Conscious Machines, and Animals: Broadening AI Ethics conference held at Princeton by Peter Singer, Tse Yip Fai, Leonie Bossert and Thilo Hagendorff. The goal was to explore how we can develop AI technologies in a way that protects and benefits nonhuman animals and potentially sentient AI. It was open to anyone who could offer value to furthering this field. This included, but was not limited to, thought leaders, researchers, industry workers, funders and hopeful future contributors.

Retreat

This 2 day retreat was organized as an unconference and was focused on attendees driving their own discussion and collaboration. It included a block of livestreamed lightning talks. It was synced with a virtual discussion group for those who cannot attend in person.

Lightning Talks

Co-working

This 6 day co-working series took place at the Center on Long-term Risk Office in London. It was a place where attendees staying in the area could continue to network in a relaxed setting while also getting back to work.
