General Description:This is the most interesting and important time to be alive in the history of the human race! Mike Ignatowski works in the hi-tech industry and has given many lectures on emerging technology and social trends. Starting this fall, he will host an educational and provocative series of monthly meetings at Wildflower exploring many interesting issues related to the future of our society. Sample topics will include: "Big History and Big Future", technology and unemployment, the evolution of increased cooperation, growth and sustainability, our moral instincts, and the implications of artificial intelligence and synthetic biology. The meeting format will include a presentation followed by a group discussion.
The meetings are intended to be very educational, so there is no need for prior knowledge or preparation for any of these meetings. The monthly topics will be posted prior to each meeting, and people are invited to attend any or all of the meetings as their schedule and interests permit.
