The extended mind hypothesis suggests that cognition does not just occur in our minds, but also extends into the physical world around us. Cognition is then a process involving a system of coupled components that work together to enact intelligent processes. In this workshop, we revisit this point of view in the context of modern scientific advances. This workshop will consist largely of discussions centered around the main theme of the workshop, with daily keynotes addressing Agency, AI Ethics, and Human Augmentation.

The objective of this interdisciplinary conference is to bring together researchers in computer science, artificial intelligence, artificial life, control, robotics, eurosciences, ethology, evolutionary biology and related fields in order to further our understanding of the behaviours and underlying mechanisms that allow natural and artificial animals to adapt and survive in uncertain environments. The conference will focus on models of adaptive behavior and its underlyng mechanisms, and on experiments grounded on well-defined models including robot models, computer simulation models and mathematical models designed to help characterise and compare various organisational principles or architectures underlying adaptive behaviour in real animals and in synthetic agents, the animats.

This workshop embraces the urgency of reflecting upon the possibilities and limitations afforded by different modes of thinking (in) Complexity and of building more complex and adaptive modes. It adopts a collaborative and dialogical format, based on a methodology specifically designed to support complex relational dialogues and facilitate emergence (e.g. of new ideas; approaches; levels of understanding; solutions or approaches). This workshop aims at identifying key theoretical, empirical methodological and pragmatic challenges and questions pertaining to how we think, build, coordinate and practice different Modes of Thinking (in) Complexity.

Workshop II | 6 May 2022 | This event has different time blocks, to cover working hours in different time zones and will span from the 5th to 7th of May 2022, depending on the time Zone, Online
