Psychiatry, prediction contests, politics, oh my! We’re having a meetup and we’d love you to be there. Free snacks too!

Astral Codex Ten (ACX) is a popular blog written by Scott Alexander, a Psychiatrist in California. Scott is a member of Giving What We Can and frequently writes about topics relevant to effective altruism.

Twice a year, ACX meetups happen in over 80 cities around the world, from Tokyo to Berkely to Punta Cena in the Dominican Republic. This will be the inaugural Christchurch meetup (an EA Christchurch affiliated event).

Whether you’ve read 14 essays or never heard the word Astral in your life we’d love to have you along to talk about forecasting, medical drugs, artificial intelligence, research rabbit holes like why transgender people report hypermobile joints and play around with Manifold Markets and rankthings.io together. You don't need to be a student to attend either - all are welcome!
