We are excited to announce a new AI Seminar Series, hosted by the GRCDI and led by Centre member Dr Kasim Terzić from the School of Computer Science. This in-person series for GRCDI members kicks off in October 2025 with a group discussion session, followed by four lectures delivered by colleagues from the School of Computer Science (Dr Kasim Terzić, Dr Ruth Hoffmann and a joint lecture by Dr Nguyen Dang and Dr Phong Le). The series will culminate in December with a further discussion session where participants can reflect on and discuss a question central to research on artificial intelligence: whether intelligence can be computed.
