  • A mix of podcasts (with transcripts available) alongside concise articles for your intellectual delight.
  • A knowledgeable and friendly discussion facilitator: Dr. Joy Buchanan.
  • Engaging opening questions, respectful dialogue, thought-provoking ideas, and the potential for new friendships.
  • Special guest appearance by Russ Roberts at our concluding meeting.

Meeting Details

Session 1: May 5-9 in the Liberty Fund Portal space

  • “Trurl’s Electronic Bard” (1965) by StanisƂaw Lem.
    This insightful short story features a scientist who creates a poetry-generating machine. Sound familiar? (If you participated in the Life and Fate reading club with Russ Roberts and Tyler Cowen, you might notice parallels between Lem’s narrative and Vasily Grossman’s “Life and Fate” (1959), both of which emerged from Eastern European intellectual traditions during the Cold War.)

An asynchronous discussion that highlights the advantages of AI, including economic expansion and innovative breakthroughs. Participants will again be invited to suggest topics for a dedicated Zoom session on May 21, 2025, from 2:00 to 3:30 pm EDT. 


Week 3: AI Common Room
