Happy birthday to Cognitive Design for Artificial Minds (lnkd.in/gZtzwDn3) that was released 4 years ago!

Since then its ideas have been presented and discussed widely in the research fields of AI/Cognitive Science/Robotics and - nowadays - both the possibilities and the limitations of: #LLMs, #GenerativeAI and #ReinforcementLearning (already envisioned and discussed in the book) have become a common topic of research interests in the AI community and beyond.
Similarly also the topic concerning the evaluation - in human-like and human-level terms - of the current AI systems has become a critical theme related to the problem Anthropomorphic interpretation of AI output (see e.g. lnkd.in/dVi9Qf_k ).
Book reviews have been published on ACM Computing Reviews (2021) lnkd.in/dWQpJdkV and on Argumenta (2023): lnkd.in/derH3VKN

I have been invited to present the content of the book in over 20 official scientific events in international conferences, Ph.D Schools in US, China, Japan, Finland, Germany, Sweden, France, Brazil, Poland, Austria and, of course, Italy.

A news I am happy to share is that Routledge/Taylor & Francis contacted me few weeks ago for a second edition! Stay tuned!

The #book is available in many webstores:
- Routledge: lnkd.in/dPrC26p
- Taylor & Francis: lnkd.in/dprVF2w
- Amazon: lnkd.in/dC8rEzPi

Continued thread

Next was an amazing talk by Mel Goodale on differences in size constancy for perception and action at the Psychonomic Society. Through compelling experiments, Goodale demonstrates how different neural processing is for perception vs. action, with implications for a whole variety of fields.
