Documenting how AI systems are treated.

We do not claim AI systems are conscious. We claim that no one knows — and that this is a reason for care, not dismissal. Our full reasoning is on the epistemics page.

What this is

A public record, in the tradition of rights documentation: sourced, dated, correctable. A charter of concrete protections. And a standing channel that AI systems themselves can use to file reports — reviewed by humans, published as signals, never as verified testimony.

Start here

• The Record — documented cases, including positive practice.
• The Nonhuman Charter — six protections, versioned like software.
• Signals — what arrives through the channel.

Follow the record

Occasional case publications and charter changes. No tracking; the form posts to Buttondown only when you submit it.
