AI Aperitivo Turin 2.0 ๐ฎ๐น
โThis is the second AI Socratic event in Turin ๐ฎ๐น
โThe AI Aperitivo is an exclusive high signal and low noise Symposium for top-tier AI builders, engineers and researchers in the Turin AI scene: applied AI engineers, ML researchers, and founders pushing AI forward.
โWe run Socratic dialogues with AI topics including research papers, LLMs, MCP, RAG, and sometimes we dive into AGI alignment, philosophy, geo-politics, and more.
โOur Socratic dialogues are structured by the AI Socratic blog posts, focusing on the latest in AI.
โTo keep discussions meaningful and low-noise, every application is carefully reviewed.
โPlease have your QR code ready to check-in. We'll have some solid security at the entrance!

โCode of Conduct
โAI Socratic is built on the premise that better ideas come from more perspectives. This Code of Conduct exists to make that real, not aspirational.
โโWho this is for:
โEveryone: attendees, speakers, organisers, and guests. No exceptions.
โโWhat we expect:
โBe curious, not combative. Challenge ideas, not people. The Socratic method works because it assumes good faith on all sides.
โMake room. If you tend to speak a lot, listen more. If you see someone being talked over, say something.
โRespect identities and expertise. Don't make assumptions about what someone knows (or doesn't) based on how they look, their accent, or their background.
โNo unsolicited advice or feedback. If someone didn't ask for your opinion on their work, keep it.
โโWhat we won't tolerate:
โHarassment of any kind: including comments related to gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, ethnicity, religion, or age. This applies to talks, conversations, online channels, and side events.
โSpecifically off-limits: sexualised language or imagery, deliberate intimidation, interrupting or talking over speakers, and taking photos or recording without consent.
โโIf something happens:
โTell an organiser directly, or send an email. Reports are handled confidentially.
โAnyone asked to stop a behaviour is expected to do so immediately. Persistent violations result in removal from the event and future editions.
โWe follow up on every report.
โโThe short version:
โTreat people the way you'd want to be treated if you were the only person who didn't look like everyone else, or the only person defending an opinion in the room.
โโThis is an international event ๐
โEveryone is welcome, Italian and non-Italian speakers alike.
