We meet second and fourth Sundays every month to discuss AI topics such as:
- Symbolic and SubSymbolic Artificial Intelligence, Artificial Life, and Artificial Intuition
- Complexity theory, Model theory
- Semantic Web, Ontology based systems
- Robotics and Robot Ethics
- Linguistics, Document understanding, Semantics, and the Semantic Gap
- Evolutionary Computation, GA, GP, GS
- Computer Consciousness, Novelty, and Creativity
- Human Learning, Machine Learning, and Deep Learning
- Epistemology, Philosophy of Mind, Philosophy of Science, Reductionism and Holism
- AI, Singularity, nanoTechnology, and the future
Our meetings typically consist of a roughly one hour presentation followed by another hour of discussion on any AI-related topic. We try to mix discussions of the latest relevant ideas with tutorials on AI and Philosophy fundamentals at a level accessible to everyone.
Several MeetUps have been video recorded with the intent to publish them on the web. Some are now available at http://videos.syntience.com and more will be added as they get through postproduction.
This group doesn't have any additional upcoming Meetups scheduled.
