SUMMARY:Augmented Intelligence Summit: Steering the Future of AI
DESCRIPTION:Today many of the concepts\, consequences\, and possibilities involved in a future with advanced AI feel distant\, uncertain\, and abstract. No one has all the answers about how to ensure that powerful AI in the future is beneficial\, either in terms of technical implementation or in terms of transference to the domains of law\, regulations and policy\, industry best practices\, or society at large. There are a number of organizations and initiatives that are working on the issues of AI safety\, ethics\, and governance. \nJoining these efforts with a distinct role that bridges academia and industry\, the Augmented Intelligence Summit offers a unique\, inter-disciplinary approach to learning and creating solutions in this space. We ask: is it possible to develop a collective\, concrete\, realistic vision of a positive AI future that can inform policy\, the development of the industry\, and academic research\, and can it be done inclusively? Our hypothesis is that this is indeed possible\, and we have designed an experiment to test it. \nLearn more: https://futureoflife.org/augmented-intelligence-summit-2019-2/?cn-reloaded=1

SUMMARY:Laurie Halse Anderson Book Launch: SHOUT
DESCRIPTION:Event Photos by Crystal Birns: \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr.  \nLaurie Halse Anderson is a New York Times bestselling author whose writing spans young readers\, teens\, and new adults. Combined\, her books have sold more than 8 million copies. She has been nominated for the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award three times. Two of her books\, Speak and Chains\, were National Book Award finalists\, and Chainswas short-listed for the prestigious Carnegie medal. Laurie was selected by the American Library Association for the 2009 Margaret A. Edwards Award and has been honored for her battles for intellectual freedom by the National Coalition Against Censorship and the National Council of Teachers of English. Join us for a discussion and signing of her new book\, SHOUT – a searing poetic memoir for the #MeToo era. \nLaurie Halse Anderson is known for the unflinching way she writes about\, and advocates for\, survivors of sexual assault. In 1999\, her groundbreaking\, award-winning novel Speak opened the door for a national dialogue about rape culture and consent. Now\, twenty years later\, she reveals her personal history as a rape survivor in a searing poetic memoir\, SHOUT. \nIn free verse\, Anderson shares reflections\, rants\, and calls to action woven between deeply personal stories from her life that she’s never written about before. Searing and soul-searching\, devastating and triumphant\, SHOUT is a denouncement of our society’s failures and a love letter to all the people with the courage to say #MeToo and #TimesUp\, whether aloud\, online\, or only in their own hearts. \nModerated by Sabaa Tahir \nSabaa Tahir is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the An Ember in the Ashes series. She grew up in California’s Mojave Desert at her family’s eighteen-room motel. There\, she spent her time devouring fantasy novels\, raiding her brother’s comic book stash\, and playing guitar badly. She began writing An Ember in the Ashes while working nights as a newspaper editor. She likes thunderous indie rock\, garish socks\, and all things nerd. Sabaa currently lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her family. \nCo-sponsored by the UCSC Title IX office\, Cowell College\, and UCSC First Gen Initiative \n \nIMPORTANT INFORMATION: \n\nThis event is for mature audiences only; children under 13 will not be admitted.\nAttendees must purchase a copy of SHOUT from Bookshop Santa Cruz either in store or at the event to enter the signing line.\nGet a copy of SHOUT at Bookshop Santa Cruz\, at the event\, or at www.bookshopsantacruz.com.
