YHouse continues its program of lectures, events, and conversations on exciting and provocative topics at a number of venues around New York City.
YHouse invites you to the Consciousness Club, a study group to promote broadly transdisciplinary discussions on the neural and computational bases of consciousness, and how these concepts can be applied to other fields of interest. Our weekly meetings are for you if you are into awareness, science, technology, philosophy, art, and design.
For more information and meeting schedule, check out our Facebook page, or tune in to our Twitter updates.
Although the meetings are open to all, we encourage technical and scientific discussions for this series of meetings.
YHouse continues to organize informal Lunch Salon events hosted by the Program in Interdisciplinary Studies at the Institute for Advanced Study, 1 Einstein Drive, Princeton, N.J., West Building Seminar Room, 2nd floor. The format is an informal chat, followed by longer open-ended discussions among the participants, on the topic of consciousness and cognition. This event is by invitation only. To request an invitation, please email us at info@yhousenyc.org
Recent progress in machine learning has changed the view of how AI is going to affect human society. The discussion, about the technological implications of AlphaGo for recent machine learning in the future, will be led by Dr. Olaf Witkowski, research scientist from Tokyo Tech and the Institute for Advanced Study, who is also a dan-level Go player.
