About AIC 2025

-----------------------------------------------

AIC 2025 is the 10th international appointment of the International Workshop Series AIC on "Artificial Intelligence and Cognition".


The AIC series (see http://www.aicworkshopseries.org/) started in 2013, stemming from the need of creating an international scientific forum for the discussion and the presentation of the theoretical and applied research developments in the field of cognitively inspired Artificial Intelligence.


In this spirit, the AIC 2025 workshop aims at putting together researchers coming from different domains (e.g., artificial intelligence, cognitive science, neuroscience, robotics, etc.) working on the interdisciplinary field of cognitively inspired artificial systems.

AIC 2025 is an official ECAI workshop and will take place at the 28th European Conference on Artificial Intelligence, October 25-30, 2025, in Bologna (Italy).
