DC Digital Minds Kickoff: AI, Consciousness & Greek Food

Join us for the first gathering of DC Digital Minds, a new meetup for people interested in AI, consciousness, digital minds, the human-AI relationship, ethics, policy, and the strange new questions emerging at the frontier.

This kickoff will be casual and friendly: no lecture, no homework, no need to arrive with settled views. Come get to know other curious people over Greek food at Zorba’s Cafe, share what drew you to the topic, and bring ideas for future meetups.
Whether you’re a researcher, technologist, policy person, philosopher, writer, student, or just someone who keeps thinking “wait, what are these systems becoming?”, you’re welcome.

We’ll use this first gathering to meet each other, compare interests, and start shaping what this group can become.

What to expect: Informal conversation, introductions, food/drinks available for purchase, and a chance to suggest future topics and formats.

Where to find us: Your group organizer, Jessie, will be upstairs and to the right as you reach the top of the stairs.
