Meetup : Nick Bostrom Talk on Superintelligence
Discussion article for the meetup : Nick Bostrom Talk on Superintelligence
What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? In his new book—Superintelligence: Paths, Dangers, Strategies—Professor Bostrom explores these questions, laying the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. Q&A will follow the talk.

(This event is organized by Harvard Effective Altruism. It is not technically a Less Wrong Meetup, but the topic is highly relevant and most of the Boston area rationalist community will be there)
This should be awesome, except for the 2-minute introduction that will be given by this annoying Swedish guy (me). Be there for be square! ;-)
