What happens when philosophy meets the engineering of self-improving AI agents? This Wednesday, Kazik Pogoda joins our Berlin AI Node for a session on Metacognitive AI: when philosophy meets harness engineering. Kazik will explore how philosophical commitments about cognition, language, and selfhood shape, and are shaped by, the engineering choices made at the harness layer. June 17 at CIC Berlin | Chatham House Rule applies. Request to join: luma.com/5zh49j9p
