Monsters, and Moral Choices (secret film)","content":"**This month:** This fantasy adventure follows an unlikely group brought together by a plan gone wrong and a series of high-stakes decisions. As the story unfolds, characters must choose whom to trust, when to improvise, and how to deal with the consequences of past mistakes -often without knowing which option is “right.” While watching, we’ll track moments of choice under pressure: loyalty versus self-interest, intention versus outcome, and action versus hesitation. What makes a choice justified when all options carry risks? After the screening, we’ll explore these questions together. Also be ready for a surprise practical exercise, where philosophy shifts from analysis to lived experience! No prior philosophy required - just curiosity and a willingness to choose.\n**Can you guess the film? Or come and find out on the day!**\n\nNote that **the event will start at 6pm** due to a longer film.\n\nPFA Film Club hosts free screenings of thought-provoking films, followed by a discussion about the raised philosophical issues, for general public. In 2026 meetings are held every third WEDNESDAY of the month at the Cafe of St. Hilda's East Community Centre, 18 Club Row, London E2 7EY. The nearest station is **Shoreditch High Street** on the Overground. The screening starts at 6:30 pm (or at 6pm for longer films) and we need to vacate the building by 9:00pm. We offer complimentary light refreshments during the event.\n\nFor the most up-to-date schedule of the upcoming film club events, visit our [website](http://pfalondon.org/#rec767601373).","price":"Free","unit":null,"currency":null,"company":null,"language":"en","online":1,"infoType":1,"biz":"community","postDate":"1766565079000","seoName":"film-club-of-mazes-monsters-and-moral-choices-secret-film","supplement":null,"author":null,"originalPrice":null,"soldCnt":null,"topSeller":null,"source":1,"cardType":null,"action":"https://uk.ok.com/en/city-leigh-on-sea/cate-classes-lessons/film-club-of-mazes-monsters-and-moral-choices-secret-film-6484033020313712/","localIds":"19","cateId":null,"tid":null,"logParams":{"tid":"c1d43662-154c-4098-bf50-b5129ed15beb","sid":"93e161d6-85ed-4bb6-bdff-03eb0d3aa540"},"attrParams":{},"addDate":1766565079712,"categoryName":null,"postCode":null,"secondCateCode":"classes-lessons","kycTag":null,"pictureUrls":null,"isFavorite":false},{"category":"6503,6506","location":"Plume of Feathers, Park Vista, London SE10 9LZ, UK","infoId":"6472693344281812","pictureUrl":"https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/c/6/a/b/highres_530450859.jpeg","videos":null,"title":"Your AI is not in love with you (no matter how much you love it) [Kate Devlin]","content":"With millions of users on AI companion apps everyday, and millions more pouring their heartfelt feelings into ChatGPT, people are engaging emotionally with AI. For some, they are convinced that this love is a two-way thing, even while admitting they know that it’s just a piece of software. So why are folks falling in love with a machine? And is it a problem if they do?

This book is more 'self help' focused than our usual walks; it presents the ideas of psychologist Albert Adler in the form of a socratic dialogue. Adlers views are controversial (I disagree with many of them!) but they should be an interesting starting point for discussion.\n\nWe'll be walking from London Fields down to Shoreditch, passing by Broadway market and Columbia Road Flower market on the way. Meet at 11am at the exit of London Fields overground station - Mentmore Terrace side.\n\nYou don't have to read the book to attend, quotes will be provided.\n\n**The Courage to be Disliked**\nhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Courage-Be-Disliked-yourself-happiness/dp/176063073X\n\nThis book made YouTube productivity guru Ali Abdaal a happier person - although some of Adlers views may make you angry, who knows!\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bf4Hs5E9eNg\n\n**Please read the following notes carefully and check the meeting point location details before attending!**\n\nThis is a walking discussion group with handouts with quotes and questions provided as a starting point. The only rule is to keep all discussion friendly and constructive and be respectful of other attendees. No dogs please as they can be distracting in the group discussion. **Please arrive early: we wait a maximum of 15 minutes at the meeting location and once we have left it will be very difficult to find us.** The walk will go ahead no matter the weather so do dress appropriately and bring an umbrella if needed.\n\nThere is a £5 fee for this walk to contribute towards the meetup.com fees and other costs. If you are a student, unemployed or retired then you can attend for free.

Evidence for a series of sightings spread over two nights includes eye-witness statements from security guards at the US Air Force base near Woodbridge in Suffolk, a memo from a high-ranking USAF officer to the UK’s Ministry of Defence, and a real-time tape recording of events as they unfolded. This talk looks at the main points of the case and explains how the witnesses were fooled by a series of natural and man-made objects. The Rendlesham case is an instructive demonstration that UFO sightings can never be taken at facevalue no matter how reliable the witnesses may seem.\n\nIan Ridpath is an internationally renowned writer on astronomy and space and a well-known UFO skeptic. He was the first skeptic to investigate and explain the Rendlesham Forest UFO case after it hit the headlines in 1983.

And then, in our imagination, there are even greater degrees of “big.”\n\nThe question of just how big a change the “AI revolution” will bring to our lives has been on my mind ever since - not just how big, but in what ways, and over what time frame?\n\nLuckily, some very smart people have written books and given lengthy talks speculating about just that, giving us an excellent basis for discussion.\n\n**Why History Cafe**\nYou'll notice that this is the first event where we’ll be discussing the future rather than the past.

As the river carries them further from the world they know, ambition curdles into obsession, and the fragile line between dream and delusion dissolves.

Or come and find out on the day!**\n\nPFA Film Club hosts free screenings of thought-provoking films, followed by a discussion about the raised philosophical issues, for general public.

Open to all. No previous philosophical experience necessary.\n\nWe will meet at the Baroness Burdett Coutts Drinking Fountain in Victoria Park (East Park). It is marked down as \"13\" on the official maps found in the park.\n\nHere's how it works:\n\n* At the start of each hour vote on which questions to discuss. You can vote for more than one question if you'd like. The questions with the most votes are the questions we discuss.\n* We then break up into groups and each group does a different question. The question is just a starting point and it's cool if you go on tangents and up end talking about different things. You're welcome to join in and participate or if you'd prefer you're welcome to sit back and enjoy the conversation.\n\nAfter an hour we all come back together, take a quick break and then repeat all over again. So in 3 hours we go around 3 times.\n\nThe aim is to have fun, meet new people, generate interesting and thought-provoking conversations, have your horizons expanded, challenge your preconceptions and who knows - you might even learn something?\n\nIn order to make the conversations as fun, interesting and productive for everyone as possible please follow these simple guidelines:\n\n1. Keep it Philosophical\n(No Science, no History, no Evolutionary Psychology, no contestable facts, personal anecdotes etc).\n2. Think for Yourself\n(No phones, no looking up definitions, no name dropping Philosophers / books you've read).\n3. Tangents are Cool\n(Don't worry too much if the subject drifts and you don't answer the question).\n4. Keep it Succinct\n(Like this).\n5. Be Excellent to Each Other\n(But of course).\n\nPhilosophy is about conceptual analysis. It's thinking about thinking. It's not about empiricism or the real world. It's about abstractions, concepts and ideas.\n\nTo terms of the right attitude: It's not about debating and trying to win - it's about listening to people and working collaboratively to increase our collective understanding.\n\nNo homework or prior knowledge or reading is necessary - simply come and enjoy the discussions.\n\nAfter the event finishes most people stay. A bunch of us will go to the local supermarket for drinks and snacks. You are very welcome to join us.\n\nIf you would like to submit a question please join the Whatsapp group.
