  • 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.

Session Details

Week 1: A Timeless Reading Group: AI Doom
Part I of the series “Artificial Intelligence: Doom or Boom?”

  • “Trurl’s Electronic Bard” (1965) by StanisĹ‚aw 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.)

Week 3: AI Common Room
