Dear Stranger readers:

YOU are an essential part of what we do. Simply put, without recurring monthly contributions from readers like you, it's impossible to provide the high quality journalism that protects the marginalized and holds the powerful accountable. We've all seen what happens to communities when reporting disappears and falsehoods take root. So if you believe our mission is important and necessary, please consider a monthly (or one-time) contribution to the Stranger, and we'll keep working hard for you and those who need it most!

Thanks, we appreciate you!

This event is in the past.

Speaker and writer Richard Yonck is first and foremost a futurist, so his efforts are mostly spent trying to predict what will happen next in science and technology. At this event, hear about his new book, Heart of the Machine: Our Future in a World of Artificial Emotional Intelligence, which explores the possibilities when computers (he says inevitably) gain the ability to process emotions.
