Dear all,

At the Kinds of Intelligence reading group we discuss papers which explore the 
nature of intelligence and mind from a range of disciplinary perspectives, 
including philosophy, cognitive science, comparative psychology and AI.

We’ll be meeting this term on alternate Wednesdays, from 3-4.30pm. We’ll meet 
on Google Meet, using the following link: https://meet.google.com/sie-jjse-izt.

We’ll kick off on May 12th, with a paper by our own José Hernández-Orallo, on 
the subject of intelligence evaluation –  ‘Twenty years beyond the Turing test: 
Moving beyond the human judges 
too’<https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11023-020-09549-0>. José has 
kindly agreed to join us for the discussion.

A full programme is below. You’ll see that we have so many great papers to 
discuss, we’re going a bit beyond the end of term. All are welcome!

For the rest of term, messages about the reading group will only be sent to the 
group’s mailing list. If you’d like to join the mailing list, you can let us 
know or subscribe here: https://lists.cam.ac.uk/mailman/listinfo/soc-koi. If 
you have any questions about the group, please get in touch.

All the very best
Ali Boyle & Henry Shevlin
