Dear all,
we invite you to participate in a one-day online-only symposium on 21st October 2022 - free of charge and open to all:
Rethinking Computational Approaches to the Mind: Fundamental Challenges and Future Perspectives
This event will bring together researchers with expertise in various areas such as complexity science, machine learning & artificial intelligence, information theory & data science, as well as computational/theoretical neuroscience & philosophy to explore different computational approaches in the study of the “mind” (in brains and/or machines):
- What are those approaches essentially about?
- What are major benefits & caveats?
- Do different approaches speak to, complement, or contradict each other?
- What are the current challenges in computational approaches to understand the mind, and what could bring progress?
The event is organized within the “Sensation and Perception to Awareness: Leverhulme Doctoral Scholarship Programme” at the University of Sussex, and will comprise a set of talks followed by a panel discussion.
Find more info - including how to register - on our event website. Feel free to spread widely in your networks.
We look forward to a day of exciting talks and discussions!
Nadine Spychala, Tomasz Korbak, & Federico Micheli (event organizers)
