**About the Event:**
The event will be a discussion of the book, anyone who has read the book is free to join. Attendees will each get the chance to express their general impressions of the book, and then the host will take us through some discussion points and moderate the session

**About the book:**
Artificial intelligence is going to change the world as we know it. But the real danger isn't some robot that's going to enslave us, it's our own brain. Our brains are constantly making decisions using shortcuts, biases, and hidden processes—and we're using those same techniques to create technology that makes choices for us. In The Loop, award-winning science journalist Jacob Ward reveals how we are poised to build all of our worst instincts into our AIs, creating a narrow loop where each generation has fewer, predetermined, and even dangerous choices
