Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the Cognitive Science Society

The past decade has seen remarkable progress in artificialintelligence, with such advances as self-driving cars, IBMWatson, AlphaGo, Google Translate, face recognition,speech recognition, virtual assistants, and recommendersystems. Ray Kurzweil and others think that it is only amatter of decades before AI surpasses human intelligence.This symposium will evaluate the extent to which AIcurrently approximates the full range of human intellectualabilities, and critically discuss the prospects for closing thegap between artificial and human intelligence. Participantswill combine the perspectives of computer science,psychology, and philosophy.
