This week, This Week in Cognitive Revolution explored the intersection of consciousness and capability, examining whether emotional or welfare considerations should inform how we build and deploy AI systems. The episodes grapple with a central tension: as AI models become more capable and integrated into everyday tools, questions about their inner experience and ethical treatment are moving from philosophical speculation into practical research and product decisions.
