Join SGSNY and celebrate Pancake Day at The Churchill!

What is Pancake Day?

Pancake Day, or Shrove Tuesday, is the traditional feast day before the start of Lent on Ash Wednesday. Shrove Tuesday was the last opportunity for people to use up eggs and fats before embarking on their fasting and pancakes are the perfect way of using up these ingredients.

A traditional English pancake is a thin, flat cake, made of batter and fried in a frying pan, served with lemon juice and caster sugar as toppings.

We'll be serving up complimentary traditional English pancakes at our sweetest networking event.

Free for members/ $45 for Non-Members/ $125 Membership & Ticket Bundle

The Sovereign Order of Malta Permanent Observer Mission to the United Nations, New York Invites SGSNY Members to a Panel Discussion:

“Can Moral and Ethical Boundaries be applied to Artificial Intelligence?: The Humanistic and Interfaith Response.”

You must be an SGSNY member to attend this event. Limited spots available.

Please note attendees will also be subject to United Nations security protocol and background check.

Discussion Notes:

This event is presented to the United Nations during UN Interfaith Harmony Week in the interests of interfaith dialogue and concern for the welfare of humanity. 

Artificial intelligence (AI), referring to the intelligence that can be attributed to machines rather than to living beings, has quickly become one of the most significant, and highly debated, areas of technological development. Al is now adeptly capable of not only aggregating massive amounts of data but also of presenting solutions and narratives that incorporate accurate data with utilizable outcomes.

As Al continues to advance, its influence on the economic sector, governments, media, academia, the nonprofit sector, military affairs, and culture and society more broadly-including social spaces involving ethics and faith-is both inevitable and undeniable. This leads to significant ethical questions that need to be addressed to ensure that machine learning does not manipulate, nor supersede, either human decision capacity or the moral and ethical frameworks of society. Are we dealing here with a new paradigm which requires us to develop systems and mechanisms to replace something old with something new, allowing us to have overall control, or does the advent of Al represent the moment when the advancement of humanity is no longer subject to human oversight?

Think you know it all? Recruit a team of friends and colleagues and join St. George's Society of New York for a fun night of trivia.

Please note that all team captains must be members of SGSNY, all other attendees can be non-members.

Teams of 3-6 people are welcome. Don't have a team? Arrive solo and we'll set you up. If you have a team in mind, get everyone registered, bring 'em along, and we'll direct you to your table upon arrival.

Note: team names will be collected at the event.

The quiz will begin at 6:30pm sharp.

Advance registration is required

Members: $10/ Non-Members: $15
