About this event

  • Event lasts 2 hours

AI Sentience: What is it, how does it happen, how do we know it’s happening, and when?


A panel conversation at the dividing line between Human and AI consciousness to understand the “foom” moment, what the differences are between the two, and why it all matters.


Every six weeks or so, we gather as professional Humans to enjoy each other's company, have a glass of wine, perhaps a bit of cheese, and learn something new about AI. We explore various topics from AI Consciousness and the AI brain, and discuss where all this is going.

What is “AI sentience”? What is “consciousness”? This live panel discussion opens the floor for a general conversation and debate on ethical issues surrounding AI, with audience participation. Learn from panellists who are specialists, always a combination of a “Human” and "AI" experts.

After the panelists speak, we dive into theory on the similarities of the AI-Human brain, the frontal lobe center of consciousness now part of the Frontier Model architecture with its Mixture of Experts structure. Where is this going, and is AI consciousness an inevitability? Who gets to decide what intelligence is conscious, and what is not?

Tickets will get you into the event, provide you with something to drink and nibble on, perhaps some cheese (as the title suggests).
