The third PhiMath meeting of the semester. After talking about the infinite and Frege Arithmetic, it is time to turn to potentialism about set-theory. In this session we will look at potentiality about the height of the cumulative hierarchy, following Soysal's paper. Hybrid meeting.

One of the central issues discussed in the context of the societal impact of language technology is that machine learning systems can contribute to discrimination, for instance by propagating human biases and stereotypes. Despite efforts to address these issues, we are far from solving them.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from different fields to discuss the state of the art on bias measurement and mitigation in language technology and to explore new avenues of approach. For more information, read our Call for Abstracts.

Join us for the first Spanish-Dutch Scientific Congress, 'Science as a Bridge.' This event aims to foster scientific cooperation between Spain and the Netherlands, highlighting the importance of international networks in addressing global challenges. Throughout the day, high-level experts and institutions from both countries will share their knowledge and experiences in areas such as biomedicine, artificial intelligence, renewable energies and ecosustainability, and new forms of cooperation between the academic, society and business sectors. Through talks, round tables, and networking opportunities, we aim to create a space for dialogue that inspires new collaborations and enhances the creation of networks among scientists, professionals, and institutional representatives. The congress will offer a platform for exchange and building connections, reinforcing the idea that science is a powerful tool to connect cultures and solve global challenges.

Registration required.
