Hi all, I don't generally want these lists to be flooded with information of local import only, but in this instance I'll allow myself a brief list-owner's prerogative, and announce here an AI/futurist get-together in Washington DC on September 5. We had these for a while in 2005 and 2006 but they dropped off this year and this is an attempt to revive them...
Non-DC-ites, sorry for the distraction! -- Ben ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: bgoertzel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Aug 28, 2007 6:44 PM Subject: [dcfuture] REMINDER: Next future salon meeting: Sept 5 !! To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all, Just a reminder that there is a Future Salon meeting scheduled for next Wednesday at 7PM, in the Dupont Circle office suite where Novamente LLC is located. Topics of discussion will be drawn from: -- how to re-energize/revive the DC Future Salon -- AI in Virtual Worlds (I'll be giving a talk on this at the Singularity Summit the following weekend, so it will be fun to trot some of the ideas out for y'all) -- Pluses and minuses of open-sourcing AGI software (e.g. AGI safety issues as well as logistical development issues) -- Ben Goertzel --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED] <dcfuture%40yahoogroups.com>, "Benjamin Goertzel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi all ... > > OK, that's enough feedback to make a quick decision... > > Let's try the next DC Future Salon as follows > > TIME: Wed.
