Online event

Curiosity Connections runs an online book club that spends several consecutive Tuesday evenings — two hours each — working through Brian Christian's "The Alignment Problem: Machine Learning and Human Values." This closing session covers chapters 9 and the conclusion. Attendees are expected to have completed the assigned reading beforehand and to bring questions and insights; discussion is deliberately egalitarian, with everyone treated as a co-equal and given comparable speaking time. Participants may post supplementary resources, including critiques of the book, in the comments.
