Call for Papers and Expressions of Interest: Thinking Fast and Slow and
Other Cognitive Theories in AI

Submission and Expressions Deadline Extended to Aug 28, 2022!

A AAAI Fall Symposium
November 17-19, 2022

Symposium website: https://sites.google.com/view/aaai-fss22
Submission site: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tfsoctai22

This AAAI fall symposium aims to be a meeting point for researchers of
various disciplines investigating or developing frameworks inspired from
the two-system theory of D. Kahneman or other cognitive theories of human
decision making to advance AI.

A non-exhaustive list of topics relevant for the Symposium follows:
* System 1 and system 2 capabilities in AI and their dynamic refinement
over time
* Governance and coordination between AI system 1 and system 2
* Introspection and meta-cognition in agents’ capabilities
* General machine decision frameworks vs specific solutions
* Leveraging cognitive theories of human reasoning to advance AI
* The role of machine learning and reasoning, and their combination, in
ethical machine
decision making

** Format **
Given the multidisciplinary nature of the topic, the symposium encourages
cross-fertilization among experts of various disciplines inside and outside
AI. The program includes invited talks, short presentations of accepted
papers, and panel discussions where panelists and participants will discuss
specific topics in depth. Moreover, we plan to organize poster sessions to
facilitate discussions between the authors and the other participants.

** Submissions **
We encourage academics, policy makers, and practitioners in the many
disciplines relevant for the topics of this event to join this Symposium.
Anyone interested must submit a max 2 page expression of their interest in
the topic. Additionally, interested researchers that want to present their
recent work should submit a paper of at most 8 pages, references included.
Submissions can be technical papers, descriptions of use cases, lessons
learnt, datasets or other resources.

The submission format is the standard double-column AAAI Proceedings Style,
which can be found at
https://www.aaai.org/Publications/Templates/AuthorKit22. zip. The review
process is single-blind.

Submissions of both expressions of interest and papers should be done
through this link:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tfsoctai22 We plan to publish a
collection of contributions after the Symposium including selected work
from the event and possibly other contributions (another call will
circulate later).
