The nature and limits of artificial intelligence (AI) are among the key questions of our time. AI has implications for industry, politics, culture, education, and warfare, among many other things. But what exactly is AI, and what are its limits? AI has a history that is not often examined in the contemporary discourse. And speculations about its limits involve controversial philosophical assumptions. This workshop will bring together philosophers and historians to investigate the foundations of contemporary AI.
