AI in Education Meetup #7 ยท Luma


Wednesday, April 23, 2026 6:30 - 9:00 PM Ethos Lab, 177 E 3rd Ave, Vancouver RSVP: luma.com/hyperstiton


Event Description

The AI-in-education conversation is stuck in doom loops. Cognitive offloading is framed as crisis. But what if the real story is about creative possibility?

Join Rachel Horst for a talk on hyperstition -- and how the stories we tell about AI shape what AI becomes.
