Questions
Do I need a machine learning background?
No. Fundamentals assumes none, and it is where new members start.
Which majors is this for?
All of them. The Policy Reading Group needs no tech background, the Singularity Reading Club is open to anyone who reads, and Fundamentals assumes nothing.
How much time does it take?
A monthly general meeting of 60 minutes, plus your track. Fundamentals and the Research Fellowship meet weekly, and the Policy Reading Group meets weekly to biweekly.
Can I be in more than one track?
Yes, once you are past Fundamentals. If you are new, Fundamentals comes first, and it ends with a capstone discussion that helps place you.
