Join us on Friday October 18 at 7pm, in room A707 of the University of Ottawa’s Colonel By Hall (which is on the 7th floor via elevator A of 161 Louis-Pasteur Private), for a special conversation with author and founder Wyatt Tessari-L’Allié regarding his treatise, A Path Forward This Century, and how his philosophy has led to his present work building the organization Artificial Intelligence Governance & Safety Canada (AIGS). - ”Accelerating change. Climate instability. Jobless abundance. Global risk. Enhanced humans. Artificial general intelligence. We are headed into a disorienting new era, and what we do in the coming years could make or break our future. But how do we make sense of it all? What does success for humanity look like?
A Path Forward this Century outlines the key challenges we face in the coming decades, presents a new narrative for understanding the big picture, and puts forward a vision of a positive future. While taking a hard look at our limitations as a species and the difficult choices we face ahead, it is nonetheless a tribute to Homo sapiens and a call to action for the 21st century.
’To those who see genuine value in life…those who want to build a positive legacy for themselves and humanity as a whole…those who see in the challenges ahead not a reason for despair but an opportunity to stand taller than we ever have before…this book is for you.”
“Former political candidate, activist, engineer and filmmaker, Wyatt Tessari L’Allié spent four years extensively researching 21st century issues seeking to answer the question: “What should I be campaigning for and why?” The result is this work. In 2021, he moved to Ottawa to get involved more directly in AI advocacy. This led him to bring together the various AI safety groups in Canada into a national organisation, which recently incorporated as AIGS Canada.” - A Path Forward this Century can be purchased here, or a 79 page PDF copy can be shared with you by direct messaging Hillary. Many thanks to Wyatt for allowing the book to be shared for the purposes of this event.
You’re invited to join us even if we haven’t met before, you aren’t sure what this effective altruism thing is all about or didn’t have time to read the booklet. We’d be happy to meet you! We’d appreciate if you RSVP so we can get an accurate headcount for snacks.
