About the Event
For several months our book club conversations have turned to the pervasiveness of AI, what it means and the morality around it. We looked for books but they often seem outdated as soon as they are published them so we decided to do something a bit different this month: we will read an essay from The Atlantic. You can find it here.
This short essay covers a lot of ground and though some aspects of it may be obsolete by the time we discuss it next month, it is assured the moral questions and cultural implications will still likely lead to a lively discussion.
Please read and join us to share your thoughts. We look forward to hearing from you.
