Robin Gane-McCalla has stepped up on short notice to give a talk Sunday. I will send out another email with the full abstract in a day or so but you can already RSVP on the meetup site at
http://www.ai-meetup.org/calendar/14462063/The topic is "The Interaction of Utility and Intelligence".

I also received this email from Christine Peterson that includes a $100 discount for her upcoming Life Extension Conference:
As you know, I'm having a life extension conference here in the Bay Area on Oct 9-10, and I want to be sure that AI Meetup members hear about it and do NOT pay the full price listed on the website.
Foresight is not the main sponsor of this; they are just a partner. This is my own thing, though Foresight will benefit indirectly.
Here's the website:
http://lifeextensionconference.comHere's a discount code for $100 off: AIMEETUP
That gets the current price down to $175.
People should feel free to distribute this code widely to our greater community.
Topics to be covered include:
? Supplements
? DNA Testing
? Telomere Protection
? Blood Testing
? Finding a Life Extension Doctor
? Gadgets
