AI Safety HK Social #1 + Reading Group #1
AI Safety Reading Group & Social Drinks
Schedule:
6:30pm-8:30pm: Reading Discussion Group
8:30pm-10:00pm: Social Drinks
Two ways to join:
Come for the reading group and stay for drinks — or skip the reading and just join us for drinks! Whether you're deep in the reading or new to AI safety entirely, you'll find a warm welcome.
Reading Group (6:30pm-8:30pm)
Each session, we tackle a selected paper, blog post, or chapter on AI alignment, existential risk, or governance. No need to be an expert, just curiosity and a willingness to engage. We read in advance, then gather to discuss, question, and debate. Expect rigorous but friendly conversation.

Social Drinks (8:30pm – 10:00pm)
After the discussion, we wind down with casual drinks. This is your chance to meet fellow community members, chat about anything from technical alignment to how your week went, and build relationships beyond the reading material. Newcomers especially welcome! If you've been curious about AI safety but haven't joined an event yet, this is the perfect soft entry point.
Come for both, or come for one. We'll save you a seat — and a drink.
