Join us Monday, March 30th for Robert Long’s Athenaeum talk at 5:30pm: “Could AI systems be conscious soon?”

When people worry about AI, they usually worry about what AI might do to us. But what about what we might do to AI? Robert Long, a philosopher who works on AI consciousness and welfare, and theExecutive Director of Eleos AI Research, will explore what consciousness might look like in artificial systems. Drawing on philosophy of mind and the science of consciousness, he asks what happens when our best theories are applied to the AI systems of the near future.

This event is the Gould Center for Humanistic Studies’ 2025-26 Golo Mann Lecture.
