When someone says โ€žScientists do not want you to knowโ€œ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They canโ€™t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Animal cultures matter for conservation, but also to animals

Chimpanzees have culture. Do they also have cultural heritage worthy of protection? @simonfitzpatrick.bsky.social and I argue they do in our new paper, because their cultural practices create value.

Last term I tried an experiment: I walked into my Tech and Design Ethics class, admitted that I had *no idea* what to do about ChatGPT - so I would let them figure it out.
