  • (New) 16 - 17 July 2024, Workshop on Logic and AI

    Date & Time: 16 - 17 July 2024, 09:00-18:00
    Location: Oude Turfmarkt 145-147, Amsterdam, The Netherlands / Online via Zoom

    This workshop is part of a research project on the topic of “Logic and AI”. It will bring together international experts to explore the promising interaction of logic and modern artificial intelligence (AI). While AI struggles with explainability, interpretability, and verifiability, logic excels at this. So can logic help AI? And if so, how?

  • 28 July - 8 August 2025, 36th European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information (ESSLLI 2025), Bochum (Germany)

    Date: 28 July - 8 August 2025
    Location: Bochum (Germany)
    Deadline: Wednesday 10 July 2024

    Under the auspices of the Association for Logic, Language, and Information (FoLLI), the European Summer School in Logic, Language, and Information (ESSLLI) runs every year. Except for 2021, when the school was virtual, it runs in a different European country each year. It takes place over two weeks in the summer, hosts approximately 50 different courses at levels that run from foundational to introductory to advanced, and attracts around 400 participants from all over the world.

    The main focus of ESSLLI is the interface between linguistics, logic and computation, with special emphasis on human linguistic and cognitive ability. Courses, both introductory and advanced, cover a wide variety of topics within the combined areas of interest: Logic and Computation, Computation and Language, and Language and Logic. Workshops are also organized, providing opportunities for in-depth discussion of issues at the forefront of research, as well as a series of invited evening lectures.
