SCOPE
The rapid emergence of agentic AI systems capable of planning, reasoning, making decisions and acting with increasing autonomy is transforming the relationship between humans and intelligent machines. Understanding how humans and AI agents can collaborate effectively, safely and responsibly has therefore become a major scientific, technological and societal challenge.
ADDRESSED TO
AICES 2027 is intended for graduate students, researchers, academics, industry professionals and policymakers from a wide range of disciplines, including computer science, cognitive science, economics, sociology, philosophy, law, public policy and business. There are no formal academic prerequisites, and researchers and professionals at all career stages are welcome.
VENUE
AICES 2027 will take place in Bilbao, in northern Spain. Once a major industrial centre, Bilbao has undergone a remarkable urban, cultural and economic transformation over recent decades and is today one of Spain’s most dynamic cities.
STRUCTURE
- Two/three courses will run in parallel throughout the event. Participants will be free to select the sessions they wish to attend and may move between courses at any time.
- In addition to the courses and keynote lectures, the program will include a round table and a symposium devoted to current research and industrial developments.
- All lectures will be video recorded and made available to participants for 45 days after the event.
- Full live online participation will be possible. Nevertheless, participants are strongly encouraged to attend in person whenever possible, as direct interaction, discussion and networking are essential components of research training events of this kind.
SYMPOSIUM
A symposium will give participants, research groups and companies the opportunity to present ongoing research projects, innovative ideas and industrial developments related to the themes of AICES 2027. Presentations will consist of 15-minute oral contributions.
Participants interested in presenting should submit a one-page abstract including the title, authors, and a brief summary to david@irdta.eu.
