The
concept of information is fundamental to all areas of science, and
ubiquitous in daily life in the Internet Age. However, it is still not
well understood despite being recognised for more than 40 years. In this
talk, Daniel Dennett explores steps towards a unified theory of
information, through common threads in evolution, learning, and
engineering.
This event was the first in a series on the theme of
'Convergence', exploring the links between neuroscience, philosophy and
artificial intelligence. If you're in London, look out for more events
later in the year: http://rigb.org/whats-on
We are grateful for the help of the Real Time Club in organising this event.
Daniel
Dennett is known as one the most important philosophers of our time,
with controversial and thought-provoking arguments about human
consciousness, free will, and human evolution.
He is also a
writer and cognitive scientist, using neuroscience, linguistics,
artificial intelligence, computer science, and psychology to inform his
philosophy, particularly his philosophies relating to evolutionary
biology and cognitive science.
