DESCRIPTION:Discover the long-term impact of artificial intelligence (AI) o
 n our world! Join us for an insightful event where we'll explore the revol
 utionary changes brought about by AI and its potential consequences. Our s
 pecial guest speaker\, Kenneth Wenger\, will share his expertise from his 
 groundbreaking book.\n\nArtificial intelligence is everywhere—it’s in 
 our houses\, phones\, and cars. AI makes decisions about what we should bu
 y\, watch\, and read\, and it won't be long before AI’s in our hospitals
  combing through our records. Maybe soon it will even be deciding who’s 
 innocent and who goes to jail.\n\nIn Is the Algorithm Plotting Against Us?
  A Layperson’s Guide to the Concepts\, Math\, and Pitfalls of AI (Februa
 ry 2023\; Working Fires Foundation) AI expert Kenneth Wenger deftly explai
 ns the complexity at the heart of artificial intelligence. He celebrates t
 he elegance and ingenuity of AI algorithms—and you don’t need a comput
 er science degree to follow along.\n\n“The purpose of this book is to ex
 plain how AI works at a level of detail that makes these algorithms access
 ible to a general audience\,” Wenger writes. “Why should you get invol
 ved in the discussion if you are not a scientist? Because each of us can i
 nfluence our collective future. You have the ability to influence policy e
 very time you go out and vote. The public can decide what areas of researc
 h should get more attention. You will be better served by understanding ho
 w these systems work and what we realistically need to worry about rather 
 than making an emotional decision based on uninformed sensationalist ideas
