Anthropic Lobbying Vatican on AI Consciousness
Original: Anthropic Has Been Aggressively Lobbying the Vatican to Consider AI Consciousness https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://futuris
Anthropic has been lobbying the Vatican to seriously consider the question of AI consciousness, according to a report by Futurism. The unusual campaign sees one of the world's leading AI companies trying to engage the Catholic Church on moral and philosophical questions about advanced artificial intelligence. Observers are debating why a major AI lab would seek the Church's input on machine minds and what it says about the ethics debate in the industry.
Why now: The prospect of an AI company courting the Vatican on machine consciousness is striking, fuelling debate about AI ethics and corporate motives.
