We've delayed this event a month due to a mixup with the speaker.

The GPT world expanded with the arrival of Eleuther.AI's GPT-Neo and GPT-J, open source AI comparable in size and capability to the 'Curie' version of GPT-3.

To understand and explore the growing availability of GPT AI, this month we're hosting a discussion with Connor Leahy, one of the minds behind EleutherAI, and how they're stimulating further AI innovation while providing open source competition to GPT-3.

Connor is a founding member of EleutherAI, a decentralized research collective working on open source AI research. He works as a researcher both with EleutherAI and at German startup Aleph Alpha. His research focuses primarily on building, controlling and understanding large language models and aligning them to human values.

PLEASE BRING YOUR FRIENDS:
To help grow our new group, we ask you to invite your friends to join the meetup, and potentially the Group. While our focus is on users and those interested in GPT-3, we're open to anyone interested or involved in working with Natural Language AIs.
