Join us for the inaugural edition of The Exchange, a new discussion and debate series presented in partnership with The Utahn, an independent news outlet dedicated to thoughtful journalism and diverse perspectives.
Designed to spark meaningful conversation, The Exchange creates space for differing viewpoints, intellectual curiosity, and constructive dialogue. Through engaging debates and audience participation, we’ll explore some of today’s most important questions in a social and welcoming environment.
Our first debate tackles one of the defining issues of our time: Should society move boldly into an AI-powered future, or slow down to better understand the technology we’re creating?
Inspired by the traditions of Oxford-style debate, two teams will present opposing perspectives, challenge one another’s ideas, and respond to audience questions. Attendees will vote before and after the debate to see which arguments are most persuasive and whether opinions shift throughout the evening.
More than a debate, The Exchange is an opportunity to connect with fellow members over live music, drinks, and conversation. Expect thought-provoking ideas, lively discussion, and new perspectives that continue long after the final vote is cast.
Whether you’re passionate about artificial intelligence, curious about the future of technology, or simply interested in hearing different points of view, this event offers a unique opportunity to engage with one of the most important conversations shaping our world.
Come with an opinion, an open mind, or simply a curiosity to learn something new. You don’t have to agree to have a great conversation.
This event follows our standard guest policy and allows up to three guests per member.
