Welcome!

This is meant to serve as your home base for all AI community discussions being run in October and beyond. Below, you’ll find links that lead you to further information regarding resources, documents, and everything in between.

You don’t need to know all the answers about AI. You just need to know your community and make space for meaningful discussion.

⚠️ PLEASE NOTE: Much of the material below is still under construction. You can find facilitated discussions that are ready to be presented to the public in the green box below. You can get a sneak peek at the discussions we’re working to complete at the bottom.
