Computing in Philosophy

19 February 1999
King's College London
Strand
9.45 am to 6.05 pm

This one-day colloquium will address the philosophical implications of
computing and its uses and consequences for philosophical studies. It will
focus on three main areas: artificial intelligence, cognitive science and
philosophy of mind; teaching of ethics, logic and argumentation; and
analysis of text. It will provide an overview for the non-specialist as well
as a concise summary of current problems and projects. It is intended for
all who are interested in the effects of the computer as idea, model and
machine on how we think, learn, teach and construct ourselves.

A revised programme has been posted at

The event is free of charge. For more information contact Dr. W. McCarty
<willard.mccarty@kcl.ac.uk> or Dr. A.J. Dale <a.dale@kcl.ac.uk>.
