Dear all, The Kinds of Intelligence reading group will be meeting this term on alternate Wednesdays at 3-4.30pm. This is a forum for discussing papers on the nature and possible variety of minds and mental phenomena – with an emphasis on non-human minds, both biological and artificial. We read papers from philosophy, psychology, computer science and beyond.
We’ll be starting this Wednesday 14th at 3pm with a discussion of Francois Chollet’s On the measure of intelligence<https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.01547>. A full programme for the term is below.
