I just stumbled across this. I didn't know it existed. I think it's a great idea and should keep going. I believe influencing the moral circle of AI's as they become more and more powerful is maybe one of the highest leverage opportunities in farm animal welfare. Whether you believe in AGI take-off or not, it seems clear to me that AIs will be responsible for a huge number of decisions. I think it's crucial for them to include non-human sentient beings into their decision making.

I'm saying this as someone who has dedicated the last eight years of their career and is still doing corporate cage-free, broiler and shrimp campaigns. I would want to see a lot more advocacy efforts like these directed at AI labs please.

I believe we need more spaces for EAs to think outside of the EA box. After spending eight years in EA and learning a lot more about therapy, collective trauma, and perspectives from different wisdom traditions and therapeutic methods such as NARM, I believe we can't solve today's multiple crises within the same paradigm that caused them. We need to develop a new paradigm. I hope IntA can help facilitate this through conferences, hackathons, and bringing people together.
