Recognizing agency in non-human systems raises complex ethical considerations regarding how we interact with these entities. As we acknowledge the potential for intelligence and decision-making capabilities beyond human cognition in various organisms or artificial systems like AI, questions about moral responsibility and treatment emerge. Ethical dilemmas may arise concerning the treatment of intelligent agents that exhibit goal-seeking behavior but do not possess human-like consciousness or emotions. This recognition challenges traditional anthropocentric views of agency and prompts discussions on appropriate ethical guidelines for interacting with diverse forms of intelligent life.
