Kathinka Evers (Uppsala University)
Kathinka Evers explores why the question of artificial sentience (or “awareness”, or “consciousness”) is raised in science receiving considerable public funding despite the lack of empirical evidence? What this might mean and what the implications of it are.
Ryota Kanai (Araya Inc.)
Are qualitative differences in conscious experience, like vision versus audition, shaped by the intrinsic structure of neural networks? This talk proposes a mathematical framework using symmetry groups and equivariance to characterize these differences. This approach offers a new path for linking consciousness to neural architecture.
Giada Pistilli (Hugging Face)
Can traditional notions of consent meaningfully apply to AI-generated content? What happens when our data creates representations of ourselves beyond our control?
Slides from our sessions. Various sessions were preceeded by a 'preamble' which typically included news and updates.
