Agenda

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing what it means to be human. In an era where algorithms monitor and shape our desires and decisions, a new consciousness needs to arise.

Join scholars, innovators, artists, and healers in an imaginative journey to explore our collective perspectives in response to AI. Drawing on tech expertise as well as neuroscience, anthropology, art, and music, we aim to create space for a more expansive and life-centered conversation.
