Anfiteatro da FCiências.ID (com transmissão via Zoom)
In the interdisciplinary workshop “Interacting Agents in Natural and Artificial Environments”, we will discuss key questions on self-consciousness and social interactions in natural and artificial environments.
This event is a joint endeavor connecting two interdisciplinary projects (INTERSELF and Magic Shoes, PI Anna Ciaunica) and CFCUL Permanent Seminar on Philosophy of Sciences.
The workshop brings together world-leading scholars and junior researchers from philosophy, neuroscience, psychology, robotics and computational neuroscience, to address the following (non-exhaustive) key questions:
- what is an interacting agent in natural and artificial environments?
- what is the relationship between self-consciousness and social interactions in natural and artificial environments?
- what are the mechanisms underpinning multisensory integration of self and world-related information in biological versus artificial agents? iv) what is the relationship between artificial intelligence and artificial embodiment?
