Greetings to members in the Lifelong Philosophy SIG -- OLLI at UK.  Our next meeting will be October 6 from 9:45-11:45 am at the Eastside Branch of the Lexington Public Library.  We will be in one of the meeting rooms on the second floor.  From either entrance, go toward the children's books for the elevator or stairs.

The topic will be the implications of Artificial Intelligence (AI), particularly General Artificial Intelligence (GAI).  Why the distinction?  What about "The Singularity?"
