Description
Ever wish your favorite NPR segment or Ted Talk came with trivia, drinks, and real conversation? Welcome to The Siposium, a live, interactive gathering where we deep dive into surprisingly niche topics with expert guests, thoughtful dialogue, and just enough irreverence to keep it fun. Think NPR-style curiosity, casual community vibes, and real-time interaction. With drinks.
This month, AI is everywhere right now… in the news, on your phone, and influencing your life every day via the recommendations you receive from Netflix, Google, Meta. AI is having a very real impact on everything from mental health, to the fundamental fabric of society.. and it’s only accelerating. AI is moving beyond chatbots and into the physical world as massive datacenters strain power grids, and researchers start merging AI with robotics. We’ll talk about how regular people are putting it to work in practical, everyday ways, and what that means for jobs, creativity, and daily life. The goal isn’t to impress you with buzzwords, it’s to leave you feeling like you understand how to think about AI and how it affects you.
