wAt the July Women and Genderqueer meetup we want to talk about AI Safety. With the establishment of Large language models like ChatGPT and looming risks, AI Safety is currently not only the biggest cause area in the EA community, but gaining awareness and attention far beyond. 
Besides getting an overview of the current research and challenges in the field, we want to discuss experiences and opportunities of women and genderqueer individuals in this heavily male-dominated field.

Who is this meetup for?

All women and genderqueer individuals in the EA community - no matter if you are currently committing your career to the cause or don't know anything about AI Safety so far.
