The topic this year is AI and philosophy\, broadly construed.
The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming our society\, scientific practices\, and our understanding of the human mind. The rise of sophisticated AI systems raises profound philosophical questions across multiple disciplines. The intersection of philosophy and AI is more relevant than ever. Machine learning reshapes scientific discovery and knowledge production\, while algorithmic systems raise urgent ethical questions regarding bias and value alignment. Simultaneously\, advancements in generative AI and artificial cognition force us to revisit foundational debates about creativity\, consciousness\, and agency.
This conference invites submissions that address foundational and applied issues at the intersection of philosophy and artificial intelligence. Possible topics include\, but are not limited to:
&bull\; \; \; ethics of AI (e.g.\, algorithmic bias\, value alignment\, moral status of AI)\,
&bull\; \; \; AI in scientific discovery and practice\,
&bull\; \; \; epistemology of AI (e.g.\, can LLMs testify\, epistemic trust in machines)\,
&bull\; \; \; AI consciousness and philosophy of mind\,
&bull\; \; \; aesthetics of AI-generated art and creativity\,
&bull\; \; \; the alignment problem and existential risk\,
&bull\; \; \; explainable AI (XAI) and understanding\,
&bull\; \; \; the nature of artificial agency\, and
&bull\; \; \; human-AI interaction and cognitive enhancement.
To apply\, you must send us an abstract of your work\, approximately 500 words long (suitable for a 20&ndash\;25-minute presentation). Send your abstract and your personal information\, by July 19\, via the \;following form.
\nDeadline for submissions: July 19\, 2026.
\nWe would appreciate it if the abstracts sent were in English\, as that will be the official working language of the conference.
\nConference fee is 10 &euro\;.
\nIf enough participants are interested\, they can publish their work in a peer-reviewed student compendium\, which will be reviewed by faculty professors. \;
\nPlease do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to your applications.
