Mind/Brain/Behavior Symposium on Artificial Intelligence  
 hosted by the Harvard Society for Mind/Brain/Behavior (HSMBB)

Professor Barbara Grosz  
 Higgins Professor of Natural Sciences, Harvard  
 <http://www.seas.harvard.edu/directory/grosz>

D. Fox Harrell  
 Associate Professor of Digital Media, MIT  
 <http://www.csail.mit.edu/user/2322>

Are robots our future? Come join HSMBB for food, beverages and stimulating discussion about what future research on Artificial Intelligence can bring. The symposium will feature Professor Barbara Grosz and Professor D. Fox Harrell, two central figures currently conducting research in the field today. They will be discussing Multi-Agent Systems, the Turing Challenge and Health Care Coordination, computational narratives and phantasms (and if you don't know what phantasms are, you're going to want to come find out).

Barbara J. Grosz teaches Harvard courses CS182: Intelligent Machines: Reasoning, Actions, and Plans as well as CS280r: Advanced Topics in Artificial Intelligence. Grosz has been a driving force in establishing the research field of computational modeling of discourse. She has made seminal contributions to the fields of natural-language processing and multi-agent systems and developed some of the earliest computer dialogue systems and her research provides the framework for several collaborative multi-agent and human-computer interface systems.

D. Fox Harrell works in the Comparative Media Studies Program and Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at MIT. Harrell explores the relationship between imaginative cognition and computation. His research involves developing new forms of computational narrative, gaming, social media, and related digital media based in computer science, cognitive science, and digital media arts.

All are welcome to attend.
