🌱 Every major technological leap has often made things worse for animals. AI doesn't have to follow that pattern. 📊 Precision livestock farming could optimize for welfare, not just productivity. 🤖 It's not just biological animals. Digital minds and biocomputing raise urgent moral questions too.

The Code of Practice, while non-binding, provides a powerful leverage point for engaging AI developers, regulators, and policymakers on welfare for both animals and AI models through EU regulation. If you’re looking to make an impact in the AI × Animals space, this is a concrete policy to build on.
