Sentience Beyond Biology — Debate w/Dmitry Volkov, Joscha Bach, Matthew MacDougall, Murray Shanahan

What happens when biology is no longer the foundation for sentience, agency, and consciousness? This groundbreaking panel discussion brings together some of the world’s most brilliant minds in AI, neuroscience, and philosophy to tackle humanity’s most profound questions about the future of intelligence. Chaired by neuroscientist Patrick House, the conversation explores the boundaries of machine agency, the possibility of AI emotion, and the future of human–machine interaction. 🎙 Featured Speakers: Joscha Bach – Cognitive Scientist, AI Researcher, Philosopher Dmitry Volkov – Co-founder of the International Center for Consciousness Studies (ICCS), Philosopher, Entrepreneur, Founder of Social Discovery Group & EVA AI Matthew Macdougall – Head of Surgery at Neuralink, Pioneer in Brain–Computer Interfaces Murray Shanahan – Professor of Cognitive Robotics at Imperial College London, Scientist at DeepMind Key Topics in This Debate: Whether giving machines “agency” is just a useful human shortcut (The Intentional Stance). If the deeper question is not “Is AI conscious?” but “Can it truly love?” How modern AI is erasing the Uncanny Valley The challenge of true individuality and creativity in AI-generated art How human biological hardware shapes consciousness - and what this means for building sentient machines. 00:00:00 - Introduction and Presentation of Participants 00:01:18 - Can a Machine "Try"?
