The Atlantic is convening its first-ever Progress Summit
https://www.theatlantic.com/live/progress-summit-2022-event/
In an age of anxiety and gloom, the world needs a new philosophy for the future. This December, The Atlantic is convening its first-ever Progress Summit to highlight the most exciting ideas in science and technology—including creative AI, new mRNA vaccines, and machines that suck carbon from the sky—and discuss how we can bend the future of technology toward abundance rather than annihilation. Join us as we bring a diverse group of scientists, entrepreneurs, chief executives, and artists to discuss how we can invent our way to a better world. Register to join us on December 13 in person in Los Angeles, or virtually from anywhere, to experience conversations that will unpack all of the complexities and opportunities these advances entail.
