The Natural Cognition series is designed as an interdisciplinary forum for exploring cognition as a natural phenomenon, where philosophy serves as a bridge facilitating discussions between various disciplines related to the investigation of the mind. Building on the 2013 inaugural meeting “Logic, Evolution, Organisms,” the 2015 meeting “Rationality and its Rivals,” in 2015, and the 2018 meeting “Experience, Concepts and Agency,” the 4th International Conference on Natural Cognition, “Deception: Self, Others, and the Digital World,” aims to bring together scholars from different areas of philosophy, as well as the cognitive sciences. The purpose is to explore the phenomenon of deception as observed in self-deception, deception of others, and deception in the digital world. While the conference theme is construed broadly, we are particularly interested in papers that approach this theme from epistemic, metaphysical, and philosophical-psychological perspectives. The conference will explore the metaphysics and epistemology of irrational beliefs, particularly those that are traditionally regarded as an instance of other/self-deception, examining their influence on human cognition and behavior. The overarching goal is to engage with traditional epistemological and metaphysical questions about deception, while fostering dialogue with scholars working on cutting-edge issues within the philosophy of technology and AI.
