What change should you make today to reach more fulfillment in your life? Ross Llewallyn from Sunday Assembly Atlanta invites you to join in an exercise called the Wheel of Life. In this interactive experience, you’ll self-reflect on your well-being in the current moment and glean new insights into areas where you’d benefit from change.
We will share coffee and tea at 10:30 am, celebration at 11:00 am, and potluck at noon. Bring a dish to share!
Let's get in the Halloween spirit while also helping others! Costumes are encouraged for both kids and adults!
We'll be making Halloween craft kits for residents of LifeMoves Mountain View. LifeMoves Mountain View is an interim housing community that offers private housing for families, couples, and single adults experiencing homelessness. LifeMoves also provides case management, educational, and employment services to remove barriers that a family may face in their efforts to return to self-sufficiency.
Have you asked a chatbot a question? How good do you think the answer was? Member Alex Rudnick can shed some light on the topic, as a software engineer, researcher, and educator in natural language processing. Alex will be discussing the large language models such as ChatGPT that are showing up at an increasing rate across the internet. What's a large language model? And what does it mean for it to be large? What are they good at and not so good at?
We'll also sing along with the band to these songs:

Program
Use the sign-up sheet to tell us what you're bringing to the after-Assembly potluck! Eat indoors or step outdoors to the side driveway. Join us for social time and fostering friendships, even if you haven't brought a dish.
We do things differently at Sunday Assembly. We offer uplifting talks, fun singalongs, and community to all regardless of their beliefs.
If you've been to Sunday Assembly before, what do you like most about it? Are there any things you'd like to see done differently? Are there any ways you'd like to get involved? And how can we help more people in our community find us?
We're going to be exploring those topics at our next Assembly as we also better get to know each other in small group discussions. We hope you'll join us!
This Assembly will be fun! Our guest speaker is Dan Dugan, CEO of Dan Dugan Sound Design and senior technical advisor to the Nature Sounds Society. Dan does scientific research in the national parks, making longitudinal studies of soundscapes over time. He'll present some sample recordings, talk about how to listen to soundscapes, and why this is important. He'll present some of his recording samples and share some aspects of natural sounds that you may not be aware of.
