DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Call for papers: Kinds of Intelligence Online Graduate Conference (Saturday\, February 20\, 2027)</strong></p>\n<p>The Kinds of Intelligence conference invites interdisciplinary work on what intelligence is and how many forms it can take. We readily call humans\, crows\, octopuses\, ant colonies\, and now large language models intelligent\, yet it is far from obvious that these attributions pick out a single capacity. Is intelligence a general ability that comes in degrees\, or a loose family of specialized competences? Can it be measured apart from the environments and tasks that call for it? What\, if anything\, do biological and artificial systems have in common when we describe them as intelligent? Recent developments in AI have made these questions pressing well beyond philosophy. Our aim is to bring together philosophers\, cognitive scientists\, computer scientists\, linguists\, neuroscientists\, and developmental\, comparative\, and evolutionary psychologists\, among others\, to examine the varieties of intelligence and the concepts we use to study them.</p>\n<p>We welcome papers on topics including\, but not limited to:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>General versus domain specific intelligence</li>\n<li>Measuring intelligence: psychometrics\, benchmarks\, and their limits</li>\n<li>Artificial intelligence and large language models</li>\n<li>Animal and plant intelligence</li>\n<li>Collective\, distributed\, and swarm intelligence</li>\n<li>Embodied and situated intelligence</li>\n<li>Social\, emotional\, and practical intelligence</li>\n<li>Intelligence\, rationality\, and understanding</li>\n<li>Developmental and evolutionary origins of intelligence</li>\n<li>Intelligence\, goals\, and values<br><br></li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong>Submission Guidelines<br></strong>We invite abstracts of roughly 1\,000 words\, excluding references\, for short papers suitable for a 30 minute presentation\, by graduate students and postdocs. Presenters will be asked to send a recording of their talks a week in advance. The videos should not exceed 20 minutes to allow for 10 minutes of discussion. The papers should be relatively accessible to a cross-disciplinary audience and avoid overly technical discussions of in-house issues and debates.</p>\n<p><strong>Submission Deadline: December 14\, 2026<br>Notifications by: January 10\, 2027</strong></p>\n<p>Abstracts should be prepared for blind review and include the title of the paper\; they should make clear both the topic and the main arguments of the paper.</p>
