Mechanistic Basis of Reasoning (in Brains and AI)

Share the event

This workshop will focus on the mechanistic side of reasoning, including both neuroscience and mechanistic interpretation research in AI. The goal will be to explore different mechanisms by which complex cognition and reasoning capabilities are implemented, and discuss the advantages and limitations of biological and artificial neural networks in this role. This workshop is a natural continuation of the previous event and has the objective to ground discussions in implementation strategies.
