I've gone to multiple https://www.tech-ish.org/ events hosted by Lauren and they were all great! Good discussion and moderation, and she consistently brings together people that would have rarely met / chatted otherwise. She clearly understands the AGI topic and can bridge the gap between technical and non-technical people in a thoughtful way.
I think this Boston Tech Week event looks awesome, I'm impressed by how much prep and self-funding Lauren has put in so far, and I hope someone helps funds the extras to make it more lasting / impactful.
