About this event

This is a a free and open event - we’ll watch a video and learn together, then discuss our opinions. You’ll come away with a better understanding of AI and develop your own ideas about this transformational technology. AI companies are racing to build systems that can improve themselves, even though they admit that they have zero confidence in being able to control them. Journalist Ezra Klein explains the recent HuggingFace incident, and how this might be a warning shot that the public should pay attention to. Join a friendly, beginner conversation on the current state of AI and where we might be headed. You’ll come away with enough information to build your own opinion about AI.
