[ExI] Update: Humanity+ @ Beijing 2018 Conference

[Natasha Vita-More]

Hi -

 

Book your flights to Beijing sooner rather than later!  Here is the website
LINK <https://humanityplus.org/events/china-conference-2018/> . Agenda,
below:

 

Day 1 - July 14

Invitation-Only Salon Discussion: AI, Blockchain and the Future of Humanity

Venue: UCCA (The Ullens Center for Contemporary Art located in 798 art
district)

A hand-picked group of ~35 Beijing technology, business and arts luminaries,
gathered to discuss AI and decentralization, and their intersection with
broader themes such as those in the Humanity+ Symposium. Sponsored by
SingularityNET

 

Day 2 - July 15

Humanity+ Symposium: Human Meaning in an AI World

Venue: UCCA (The Ullens Center for Contemporary Art located in 798 art
district)

As AI robotics, and associated technologies advance, more and more of the
practical functions now served by humans will be done by automated systems.
There will also arise possibilities for humans to fuse with machines in
various ways. The impact of all this on human life will depend on
psychology, social organization and culture. In the best scenarios,
liberation of humans from the necessity to carry out practical tasks, will
lead to a flourishing of human and transhuman fulfillment.

 

If you are planning to be at the Bejing Conference, I wanted you all to know
that I reserved a room at the Gracie Art Hotel
<http://www.graciearthotel.com/en-us> . It is walking distance to the
conference venue at the UCCA <http://ucca.org.cn/en/> .  

 

Onward!

Natasha
