Main event page Friday 13th September- Monday 16th September 2024 is the 11th annual Less Wrong Community Weekend (LWCW) in Berlin. This is the world’s largest rationalist social gathering which brings together 250+ aspiring rationalists from across Europe and beyond for four days of intellectual exploration, socialising and fun. We’re expanding to 250+ participants and taking over the whole hostel. This year there will only be us during the event: a huge variety of spaces to talk, relax and have fun with a higher sense of security and freedom. The EAGx and LWCW happen this year during the same weekend, due to limited availability of conference centres. It is an unkind choice having to pick one community over the other. To freely decide which sessions to attend and where, we will offer a reduced ticket that includes 3x bed & breakfast at the hostel for you to enjoy the unique LWCW atmosphere and community, as well as join the talks at EAGx during the day. We are delighted to have Anna Riedl for this year's key note. Anna is a cognitive scientist and conducts research on rationality under radical uncertainty, a phenomenon in the intersection of psychology, economics, neuroscience and artificial intelligence, directly relevant for improving human and institutional decision-making in real life. That said the majority of the content will be participant driven in an unconference style: on Friday afternoon we put up six wall-sized daily planners and by Saturday morning the attendees fill them up with 100+ workshops, talks and activities of their own devising. Most are prepared upfront but some are just made up on the spot when inspiration hits. Previous years’ schedules have included… * Double Cruxing * Hamming Circles * Gendlin Focusing * Applied Rationality workshops * Circling * Authentic Relating games * Improvisation theater * Introduction to stand up comedy * Writing rationalist fiction * Dance workshops * Acapella singing * Icebreaker games * L
