/ About this event

AI is creating and concentrating wealth at an unprecedented pace, with the expectation that it will deepen existing inequities.

What would it mean to optimize for justice and human flourishing? Which institutions, movements, and leaders are capable of shaping that future?

Chris Russo (CEO of Savas Labs) takes a position rather than moderating one: what people actually want out of a life (the Greeks called it eudaimonia), and what we should do with AGI given that. Then the room takes over: submit questions, vote them up, and argue him out of it if you can. Changing his mind counts as the win. We ran this in New York and Boston; a lot has happened in the world since, and the argument has moved with it.

Foundational context: savaslabs.com/blog/just-society-after-agi/

Come early if you can: our first talk, Skills That Matter, runs 1:30 to 2:30 in the same room.

Getting there: Millennium Biltmore, 506 S Grand Ave, DTLA. Pershing Square station is one block east; the E line from Santa Monica connects at 7th St/Metro Center. Room name will be posted at the front desk.

This event is part of #LATechWeek, a week of events hosted by VCs and startups to bring the tech ecosystem together. Learn more at http://www.tech-week.com
