Welcome

Since 1987 the Apeiron Society of Calgary has been promoting its stated objective—the practice of philosophy—by hosting fortnightly meetings in the Fall (September to December) and Winter (January to April) at which speakers put forth ideas for discussion. 
 
We will be returning to in-person talks at the Scandinavian Centre at 7:00 pm in October 2024. Please check our Program page.

Anyone interested in becoming a member of Apeiron, or just learning more about the Society, is invited to write to the Board of Directors at [email protected]

Next Event

The Apeiron Society is excited to announce our first session of the 2024-25 season!

Brandon Beasley of Mount Royal University and the University of Calgary will speak on "Reckoning with AI: Meaning, Inference, and Large Language Models." 

Drawing on the philosophies of mind and language, Dr. Beasley will help clarify the radical implications AI technology can have on what it means for us to communicate with one another. If you're looking to understand what the new, AI-driven world might mean for you, then this is a talk you won't want to miss.
