1/ My TEDx talk “What Do We Owe AI?” is now live! AI is advancing fast, and our relationships with AI systems are changing too. Some think AI could soon be sentient and deserve care. Are they right? What if the only honest answer is: maybe? 🧵+🔗👇

🎥 Excited to share that the recording of my presentation "AI Welfare Risks" from the AIADM London 2025 Conference is now live!

I make the case for near-term AI welfare and propose 4 concrete policies for leading AI companies to reduce welfare risks!

I argue that near-future AIs may have welfare, that RL and behaviour restrictions could harm them, that this poses a tension with AI safety and how AI labs could reduce such welfare risks. 1/

@anthropicai.bsky.social and @nytimes.com (courtesy of
