I co-lead the Turing Seminar while the Atlas was still being developped at ENS Paris. It offers a comprehensive survey of different fields of AIS and is clearly written and coherent. The facilitation guide did most of the heavy-lifting for me, by offering intriguing and entertaining questions to the class. Charbel, who I was in contact with, actively seeks feedback from the students and develops the textbook responsively. The fact that it's online and maintained by dedicated authors allows for rapid updates, which is a big plus.

I stayed at CEEALAR for a month -I was the most focused and productive I've been since a long time. It really helped me to complete the short project I aimed for then, and I believe that doing this in another environment would have been very difficult, because of the absence of silent workspace and motivated colleagues. It also helped me because of my limited financial situation, and lead me to have more time to dedicate to my mental health. I also had great exchanges there that I didn't have in regular EA houses and workplaces.
