The Second Workshop on Decision Theory & the Future of Artificial Intelligence, 
27-28 July 2018, Munich, Germany

http://decision-ai.org/2018/ <http://decision-ai.org/2018/>
This workshop will continue in the tradition established last year of bringing 
together philosophers, decision theorists, and AI researchers in order to 
promote research at the nexus between decision theory and AI. Our plan for the 
second installment is to make connections between decision theory and 
burgeoning research programs that may play a prominent role in the near future 
of the discipline – e.g., quantum information theory, social network analysis, 
and causal inference.
