Growing in understanding and application of artificial intelligence, together.

What we are

AI Corner is a weekly gathering in Nashville for people who want to get better at thinking about, working with, and living alongside AI. We meet Friday mornings at 8:15 AM at Ugly Mugs. Anyone can come.

Why we're different

There are plenty of developer meetups that trade tips on Cursor, Vercel, and the latest model release. Those groups are good at what they do. AI Corner is not that. We want a shared language that a home inspector, a real-estate agent, a pastor, and a backend engineer can all participate in — because every one of those jobs is being reshaped by this technology, and the most interesting conversations happen where those perspectives meet.

How we run

One or two people bring a specific problem or idea each week. They get about fifteen minutes to present. The group discusses. We try to leave with a concrete next step, not a manifesto. Topics are posted publicly ahead of time so you can choose which weeks to come.

What we care about

Practical application. Real workflows. Real problems. Whatever you think AI can't do — it can probably do more of it than you think. The limits are usually in us, not the model.

Ethics and formation. Vision, intention, and means. We take seriously that great power carries the possibility of great harm and great good, and that tools shape the people who use them. We want to use AI in service of other people.

Faith as a welcome frame. Several of us come to this from a Christian perspective. That lens is welcome here and so is disagreement with it. Christians should be among the people engaged seriously with this technology, not conserving older comforts.

Generous skepticism. We're not here to rehash whether AI is good or bad on energy grounds, or to trade doom takes. If that's the conversation you're looking for, there are other rooms for it.

How to participate

Show up. RSVP if you'd like — it helps us plan the room. If you have a question or a problem you want the group to think about with you, record a 30–60 second audio clip and send it in. We'll post a public topic and summary so everyone knows what's on the docket; the audio itself stays private.
