The format will be a dialogue / discussion based on an outline of themes.  Everyone is encouraged to bring their skepticism and their questions.  The main topics will be:

1. What is the status of Artificial Intelligence today?  What is intelligence anyway?

2. What are the potential benefits and harm of AI?

3. What are the philosophical implications of AI and the evolution of intelligence?

4. What is technological acceleration? Where do we see this taking place?

5. Other!

    We will be congregating at Machiavelli’s in Bristol, TN (google map) at 7:00pm. Surf over to this site if you will and RSVP so we’ll know how many to expect: www.mobaganda.com/geeksouthoctober2008

    Please come out to check in with all your geeky friends, make new geeky friends, and see what Ben has in store for us.

    Also… if you have a Robot please bring it along :)
