We are a private members' group dedicated to discussing existential risks, advanced technology, and the future of humanity.
We meet around twice a month in person (or online when physically impossible).
(1) Current groups and legacy debating unions have become fundamentally compromised by algorithmic incentive structures and social pressures to "virtue signal," which prioritise viral engagement, tribal slogans, and brand safety over the rigorous, uncensored dialectic needed to address existential human questions.
(2) Many groups lack the filtering and foundational literacy needed for serious inquiry.
Our goal is not to be arbitrarily "uncensored"; rather, certain discussions require openness to a wide range of ideas to avoid echo chambers and the homogenisation of thought.
Discussions, activities, talks, etc..
Members must initally demonstrate foundational literacy in relevant technical/scientific and philosophical fields.
This is not an anti-technology group—far from it.
We are NOT affiliated with any political groups.
This is not necessarily a debate group; nor is there any formal structure.
Every existing member of the group is secular: non-religious and non-spiritual; yet, not necessarily anti-religious.
Everything is free; you don't need to pay to be a member.
