Introduction The Stanford Existential Risks Initiative (SERI) hosts an annual conference focused on, you guessed it, existential risks. I believe this conference has previously been exclusively online, with this year being the first with hybrid in-person/virtual format. The conference spanned two days, 4/21/23 and 4/22/23 with the first day being primarily in-person presentations streamed to virtual participants, and the second day being primarily virtual presentations. I had a conflict and was only able to attend the first day, but in hindsight I regret this and in the future I’ll definitely be clearing two full days to pay attention to this conference. Maybe I’ll even travel for it.
