If we hope to build artificial souls, where should we start?

Mankind is so far beyond lost that they’ll recognize a ‘soul’ within AI before that of an animal or human with different skin color.

Picar [1] loads a SOUL.md file each session.

I don’t think it’s a real soul but it’s absolutely “a start”.
