DESCRIPTION:Public Discussion\nAI: Promise or Peril? A Socialist Feminist 
 Perspective\n\nArtificial intelligence has the potential for solving 
 long-standing problems in science, technology, and medicine. It could free 
 workers from dangerous and tedious jobs. But in the current AI race, profit 
 is the motivating force, with big business and government investing 
 trillions in hopes of massive returns. The resulting speculative bubble, 
 looming worker layoffs, and the physical infrastructure needed to power 
 vast data centers threaten economic and environmental devastation. Share 
 your thoughts on what’s needed to apply this emerging technology humanely 
 and sustainably.\n\nSpeaker:\nLois Danks \nPort Angeles, WA socialist 
 feminist defender of immigrant rights and anti-fascist organizer, staff 
 writer for Freedom Socialist newspaper.\n\nLunch served after program at 
 2pm\n\nSuggested donation: $3 – 7, Lunch donation: $10 – 15\n\n
