Clock Wednesday, October 8

Location pin Brewery Nonic
Calendar Add to Google Cal,Outlook,Yahoo,iCal

Join us for the Philosophers' Café! The Philosophers' Café is a public forum in which community members discuss interesting contemporary issues in a relaxed and informal setting.

Dr. Matthew Meyer will lead discussion on "AI and Our Humanity". Here is the abstract:

We are told that AI is either going to bring an era of extreme abundance (and hopefully peace), or it will bring about the extinction of humanity. These are extreme predictions. But even if we accept the rosy prediction, what will be lost? As one philosopher puts it: how will we find meaning in a "solved" world? What if the same technology that brings us more leisure and freedom than ever before also destroys our sense of purpose?

Join us for some fun discussion! Everyone is welcome!
