Chasing Consciousness: The Great AI Debate

Artificial intelligence — it seems you either love it, hate it, or don’t know what it really means. Will thinking machines save us and enlighten us, or destroy us? Can we control what’s happening with developments in machine learning, or are they already controlling us? Join YHouse’s guests Simon DeDeo and Erik Hoel as their human minds battle it out, while you, the audience, get the final vote.

YHouse, Inc. is a nonprofit institute in New York City devoted to innovative and transdisciplinary research, intellectual partnership, and public discourse tackling humanity’s greatest questions on awareness, consciousness, and the future of intelligence.

Doors: 5:30, event 6:00.
