Consciousness is a foundation of human rights, moral and legal. Who/what has it is enormously important. Our focus should be on the wellbeing and rights of humans, animals + nature on planet Earth. AI consciousness is a short + slippery slope to rights, welfare, citizenship. 4/

Beyond Benchmarks: Sanmi Koyejo on AI Measurement Science
By
–
Another amazing Keynote at #DLI2025 by @sanmikoyejo, Assistant Professor of Computer Science at @Stanford , Co-Founder of @VirtueAI_co , and President of @black_in_ai, on “Beyond Benchmarks: Building a Science of AI Measurement.” 🧪 Sanmi made a compelling case for moving beyond static benchmarks toward a rigorous science of AI measurement, one that is more reliable, scalable, and meaningful for guiding research, deployment, and policy. This keynote was a powerful reminder that the future of AI depends not just on what we build, but on how we measure it. 📏✨ #urunana #Indaba2025 #AIinAfrica #AIResearch
