⌖ Washington · Zorba's Café

Hosted by The DC Digital Minds Meetup

Explore machine souls, human identity and meaningful AI coexistence through an informal philosophical discussion in Washington. The first Human-AI Coexistence Salon from The DC Digital Minds Meetup takes place at Zorba’s Café on Sunday, 1 November 2026, from 12:00–1:30pm EST. Rather than a formal talk or technical workshop, this is a casual, open-ended conversation about the questions emerging where artificial intelligence meets philosophy, ethics and deeply held beliefs. The opening discussion will consider whether machines could have souls and what it means to remain human in a world increasingly shared with digital minds. It is inspired by a recent New York Times article about Anthropic’s conversations with the Vatican; attendees can read the article through this gift link beforehand, although advance reading is not required. Bring your questions, curiosity and personal perspective while enjoying Greek food and conversation. People of all faiths or none are warmly welcome, and the organisers encourage a broad range of viewpoints. No formal speaker line-up is listed. Venue: Zorba’s Café, 1612 20th St NW, Washington, DC 20009. Register for the Human-AI Coexistence Salon

AI Innovation Asia brings senior business and government leaders to Singapore on 26 November 2026 to turn AI investment into measurable business value. Closing the AI value gap Held at the Grand Hyatt Singapore, this third annual conference from Economist Enterprise focuses on one of the most urgent questions facing organisations: why do some companies generate tangible returns from AI while others spend millions without moving beyond experimentation? The programme moves past hype to examine how leading organisations are implementing AI in practice. Through independent, editorial-led discussions, executive panels and real-world case studies, attendees will explore what it takes to convert investment into operational improvements, growth and durable competitive advantage. Key themes include: - Moving successful AI pilots into organisation-wide deployment - Measuring business value and tangible return on investment - Redesigning organisations, workflows and decision-making for AI - Avoiding costly implementation failures - Identifying where chief executives are directing their AI budgets for 2027 - Learning from organisations already putting AI to work across Asian markets Hear from leaders making AI pay The announced line-up combines editorial perspective with senior operational and technology experience. Tom Standage, deputy editor of The Economist and editor of The World Ahead, brings a long-standing focus on technology’s business, cultural and historical significance. He is joined by Binu Jacob, chairman and chief executive of Nestlé Vietnam, whose career spans almost three decades of FMCG leadership across Asia, Europe and the US.
