Join us Saturday, July 12th at 1 PM for a dynamic, in‑person discussion exploring provocative perspectives on artificial intelligence.
We’ll dive into:
- “The Myth of AI” – challenges AI narratives
- “AI is an Ideology, Not a Technology” – separates assumptions from code
- “There Is No AI” – questions the very existence of “intelligence” in AI systems
- “What OpenAI Really Wants” – reveals motivations behind its strategies
- “The Gentle Singularity” – imagines an approachable future of AI integration
- Plus, the recent TechCrunch piece, “Congress might block state AI laws for a decade…”
It's apx 4 hours of reading (some of the articles are also available via audio, and those are accessible as links within the documents). All of the reading is available here (google doc with links to other google docs): https://docs.google.com/document/d/18yGp5iRSgAw_S_MQXAmUWnukD-dwebOZoxZF4lBteIk/edit?usp=sharing
What we’ll explore together:
- Does AI reflect a technology or a broader social belief system?
- How are public‑policy shifts (like federal moratoriums on state AI laws) reshaping innovation and oversight?
- What’s at stake for creativity, autonomy, and societal influence?
Who should come: thinkers, creators, technologists, policymakers—even if AI just fascinates you.
Come prepared with your questions, curiosity, and skepticism!
