Gavin, Ruben and the rest of the EA New Zealand Summit Team 🇳🇿
I'm thrilled to have an EA conference in my home town (thanks @Gavin Bishop 🔹 and @Ruben Castaing for leading this event)!
For those of you who are considering coming -- a little (biased) plug from me:
The EA Christchurch and the EA Aotearoa New Zealand communities have been active for 10 years now, with a handful of very engaged EAs who have dedicated their careers to EA-aligned work of various types (community building, donation funnelling, civilisational resilience, AI safety, animal advocacy, probably other things too that I've forgotten), and many other engaged EAs have been involved in the past and have flown the coop for their high-impact careers. While our community is small in global standards I think we are pretty impressive by per-capita and by per-unit of resources invested. And we're very friendly and supportive too! So it would be lovely to see people join us!
While the conference is just a single day, a few of us are planning to also have some more relaxed social activities on Friday night and Sunday, so try to come for the whole weekend if you can.
Nau mai, haere mai!
Love it wish I was around!
