About this event
Montreal’s AI and Society meetup returns with an evening focused on AI models and the idea of mathematically predictable intelligence. This isn’t a generic talk; it’s a two-tiered session designed to welcome newcomers with a solid introduction while also inviting deeper, advanced explorations for more seasoned attendees. If you’re curious about how modern AI models work, how reliability and predictability can be discussed in mathematical terms, and how these ideas can translate into real-world applications, this event offers a thoughtful blend of learning and hands-on ideation.
What to expect:
- A structured presentation that starts at an Introduction level and then branches into advanced-level additions, outlining core concepts behind AI models, common architectures, training signals, and evaluation metrics.
- A collaborative brainstorm segment where attendees propose problems, projects, or research questions to explore as a group.
- Topic focus that is not fixed in advance: the exact session topic is chosen on Saturdays via a community poll, with details shared in the group’s Discord. If you want to influence the discussion, participate in the poll and follow the Discord updates for the latest topic.
- Community-driven format: moderated by the Montreal AI and Society Meetup Group, a local network of researchers, developers, students, and enthusiasts exploring AI’s potential and its societal implications.
Logistics you should know:
- Date and time: Sunday, March 8, 2026, starting at 7:00 PM local time in Montreal. No end time is listed here; check the Meetup page for the latest schedule and venue details.
