Coming up next week, we are holding the third in a series of excellent evening talks sponsored by our Computational Neuroscience Center about neuroscience and/or AI and their impact on society, featuring thinkers from the broader spheres of philosophy and anthropology: Lawrence Weschler on the late neurologist Oliver Sacks.
Our previous speakers were philosopher Patricia Churchland, on the biological basis of conscience, and Genevieve Bell, of the Australian National University, on the need for socially aware design principles for AI.
