Sydney Writers Festival Live & Local: A.C. Grayling: The Meaning of Life in a Technological Age
10:00am to 11:00am
Young adults, Adults (30+), Seniors
Free
"It shouldn't be in the business of a philosopher today to tell people what to think", says A.C. Grayling, but rather "how to think".
The quest for a life worth living has been the business of philosophers for millennia. How can we pursue answers to life's big questions in a world that feels increasingly dangerous and unstable thanks to big tech and AI?
Unpack the 'how' in this unmissable talk from the pre-eminent philosopher, who returns to Australia following his sell-out public lectures last year.
This event is livestreamed from the Sydney Writers Festival.
Venue
Ashgrove Library, 87 Amarina Avenue, Ashgrove
