Socratic Dialogues We begin this session with a quick round of introductions to get to know each other. Then we dive into this month’s blog post and discuss the topics on the latest developments in AI — experts on the current topic are encouraged to participate in the conversation and to share alpha on it. Andrew moderates to help facilitate the dialogues.

Presentations 🚀 In this session, you’ll have the chance to share something you’ve learned that brings real value to the room—whether it’s a new model, a research paper, an AI coding project, or even an ethical debate.
