Let’s Talk About AI: A Community Conversation
Artificial Intelligence is showing up everywhere—from writing tools and image generators to customer service chatbots and research aids. But what do we really think about it?

Join us for a guided community conversation where we’ll explore how AI is impacting our lives, both positively and negatively. Whether you're excited about AI, cautious, confused, or curious, this is a space to ask questions, share experiences, and learn from different perspectives.
