IACAP 2016 Conference Details
IACAP has a long-lasting tradition of promoting philosophical dialogue and interdisciplinary research on all aspects of the computational and informational turn. This puts it in a privileged position, as IACAP’s members have contributed shaping the philosophical and ethical debate about computing, information technologies, and artificial intelligence. The 2016 annual meeting will keep this tradition and will gather philosophers, ethicists, roboticists, and computer scientists interested in the following topics:
- Artificial Intelligence
- Artificial Life
- Automated Warfare
- Cognitive Science, Computation & Cognition
- Computational Modeling in Science and Social Science
- Computer-Mediated Communication
- Ethical Problems and Societal Impact of Computation and Information
- Ethics of Big Data
- History of Computing
- Information Culture and Society
- Metaphysics of Computing
- Philosophy of Information
- Philosophy of Information Technology
- Robotics
- Virtual Reality
… and related issues
The meeting will have a single main track focusing on topics at the core of IACAP members’ interests. Symposia will also be organized and run by members, or groups of members, to focus on more specific topics.
We invite submissions of papers (between 3000 and 6000 words) as well as submission of proposals for symposia. A selection of the papers presented during the meeting will be included (after peer review) in a volume planned for the ‘Philosophical Library Studies’ (Springer).
