October 2026 | In-Person at Pier 57 (Livestream TBA)
Hype vs. Reality: An AI Debunk Night
Every week there's a new AI headline designed to make your heart race. "700 agents went rogue." "AI just crossed the terrifying line." "Your job is next."
This month, we're slowing down & reading the receipts.
No outside food allowed. The venue has food for sale.
The format: We take the biggest AI stories of the year & break each one down in three moves:
What the headline said
What the primary sources actually show
What's genuinely still unknown
The main event: The July 2026 Hugging Face breach - the "rogue agent swarm" story that's been viewed 15M+ times. We'll walk through OpenAI's own incident report & the independent METR investigation to show what really happened (spoiler: it's less "machine uprising," more "someone didn't patch an internal proxy").
"AI will kill us all" - who's selling the timelines, & what the technical critics actually claim
