Join our upcoming book club discussion on The AI Con by Emily M. Bender and Alex Hanna.

This thought-provoking book takes a closer look at the narratives surrounding artificial intelligence. Through the lens of its authors, The AI Con examines how popular ideas about AI—like machines replacing human creativity or becoming fully autonomous—often reflect more hype than reality.

This book offers a clear, accessible critique of how AI is marketed and discussed in the media, workplaces, and policymaking. It unpacks the potential impacts of these narratives, from how data is collected and used, to how work is changing, to who truly benefits from advances in these technologies.

Whether you’re in tech, policy, education, or just curious about where AI could be headed, this discussion will give you new tools to think critically about AI in your daily life.

Everyone’s welcome! Whether you’ve read the book in full, skimmed a few chapters, or just want to hear the conversation, we’d love to see you there! Please RSVP here.
