Opening session of the 4th Intercontinental Academia on Artificial Intelligence
  |
From June 13 to 18, opening of the fourth edition of the Intercontinental Academia (ICA), organized by the UBIAS network, with the support of the Paris Institute for Advanced Study and IEAT UFMG - Institute for Advanced Study, Universidad Federal Minas, whose 2021-2022 theme is Intelligence and Artificial Intelligence.
Presentation
The Intercontinental Academia (ICA) seeks to create a global network of future research leaders in which some of the very best early/mid‐career scholars will work together on paradigm‐shifting cross‐disciplinary research, mentored by some of the most eminent researchers from across the globe.
This 4th edition of ICA will explore fundamental interdisciplinary questions at the intersection of cognitive science, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence. Decisive advances have been made during the past decades in the analysis of brain activity and its behavioral counterparts, as well as in the information processing sciences. Complementarities between neuroscience/ cognitive science and artificial intelligence provide grounds for exploring synergies and raising ethical questions between these disciplines that hold tremendous challenges and opportunities for societal progress.
On the occasion of the visit of high-level researchers, the organizing institutions plan in parallel a set of "side events" open to all. Conferences and workshops will be scheduled at some of the major Parisian university partners of the IEA de Paris.
The opening session is virtually held from June 13 to 18. The face-to-face sessions will take place next October in Paris and in June 2022 in Belo Horizonte.
