EA Pub

Let’s meet up and chat about topics and news from the world of effective altruism, AI, existential risks, and rationality. This is a place to think about how to have the greatest positive impact on the world, along with related questions.

To start up the discussion, anyone will be able to suggest a topic, and we will form a few groups. After that, the evening will stay informal and open-ended.

This month, we might talk about:
— The first moment when a government caused a retraction of an AI model out of security concerns
https://thezvi.substack.com/p/american-government-takes-down-claude
https://thezvi.substack.com/p/the-once-and-future-fable-2
— Some new articles from EA Forum Digest
https://eaforumdigest.substack.com/
— Anything else you read or thought about this month!

Everyone is welcome! Don’t worry if you’re not very familiar with effective altruism or if you’re critical of some approaches that are popular within EA – that makes discussions only more interesting!
