A free, public workshop-no technical background needed

Artificial intelligence is no longer just getting better at narrow tasks-it's beginning to look general. Many researchers believe we're entering the early stages of the AGI transition: a period where AI systems start to match or exceed human abilities across a wide range of domains.

This workshop explores what AGI actually means, how to think about it intuitively (without hype or jargon), & what this transition could mean for your job, your relationships, & your day-to-day life-much sooner than most people expect.

Together, we'll explore questions like:

What is AGI?
How do experts define artificial general intelligence, & how is it different from today's AI tools?

Work & Jobs:
Which kinds of jobs are already being automated or transformed-and which ones experts believe are most likely to remain resilient?

Human Connection:
How is AI starting to replace or supplement roles once filled by coworkers, friends, tutors, therapists, & companions?

What you'll get:

A clear, beginner-friendly explanation of AGI & why it matters

Real-world examples of how AI is already reshaping work & social life

Live demos that highlight both impressive capabilities & emerging risks

Interactive discussion & exercises to test your own intuitions about the future

Come ready to grapple with one of the biggest transitions humanity may ever face-a shift that could redefine not just how we work, but how we relate to each other, find meaning, & navigate a world increasingly shaped by intelligent machines.
