Robustly Beneficial group

From RB Wiki

The Robustly Beneficial group is an AI ethics group, started by Louis Faucon and Sergei Volodin, in Lausanne, Switzerland. The group is now managed by Louis Faucon, El Mahdi El Mhamdi and Lê Nguyên Hoang. Every week, we discuss a paper relevant to AI ethics. Please feel free to ask to join.
