Great to see @TheAtlantic picking up @danfalk's excellent coverage of The New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness from @QuantaMagazine!
A thread about the "New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness," which I signed. (nydeclaration.com) The dec says that along with mammals and birds, there's "at least a realistic possibility" of consciousness in many other groups, including fish, crustaceans, insects.. 1

@birchlse "good 4 u - On being happy for others (or not)"
I'm very happy to share that my third book, provisionally called Animals, State, and Utopia: Robert Nozick's Animal Ethics, is now forthcoming with Oxford University Press. If all goes according to plan, it will be released in 2025.
Last week, a group of philosophers & biologists led by @jeffrsebo, @birchlse & @KristinAndrewz unveiled NY Declaration on Animal Consciousness "that extends scientific support for consciousness to a wider suite of animals" by @danfalk, @QuantaMagazine 🧵 quantamagazine.org/insects-and-ot…
@birchlse “drivers license and Transformative Experience”.
Next groundbreaking project identified.
The New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness has received hundreds of signature submissions, which is wonderful! We ask for patience as we work through them all. The website will be updated periodically, and further signatures are still welcome here: sites.google.com/nyu.edu/nydecl…
At The Airport Bar: Dude A: What line of work are you in? Me: I’m a philosopher A: Huh. Interesting Dude B (drunk): A philosopher? You know what’s great about philosophy? Aristotle don’t change! Me: Yes. But Heraclitus is another story Dude B: True, so very true…
A self-inflicted problem in UK academia is that we use an antiquated marking system designed to fill the long pre-claret hours in the fellows' parlour with idle chatter about 69 v 70 - when what we need is a streamlined complete/incomplete system for grading 10x as many students.
I'm pleased to sign the New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness: 1) Our best science suggests some animals are conscious. 2) Many other animals realistically might be conscious. 3) It's irresponsible to ignore (the chance of) consciousness in decisions impacting animals.

@birchlse This makes sense. I'm curious about goining beyond the Bayesian framework, which always requires us to compete theories against each other (i.e., we assume all the theories are given ahead of time, which in reality never happens, making most accounts post hoc justification.)
