       It has been 164 years since the publication of Charles Darwin’s “Origin of Species” and we still haven’t figured out how to adapt our systems of ethics to properly consider all life as part of our extended family.Perhaps we should do a bit more work on that, before we even think about building sentient machines?http://www.aspenproposal.org#ethics #AI #sustainability  #Nature  #biodiversity  #spirituality #politics

       @AspenProposal It saddens me so much. We have an overwhelming amount of knowledge about ecology and the origin of life on earth. We have found time and time again how fundamentally connected we are to all other life we know. And yet most people still believe other species are inferior to us, that we are nothing like them, and that we don't need them. We know that is inherently unsustainable, but we still treat our world like a pile of infinite resources that have nothing to do with us.

       @TropaeolumMajusSnail  Yes, it is immensely frustrating. But things are changing, the paradigm is shifting.  We started the Aspen Proposal project to help that process along.
