Abstract Visual scene understanding requires much more than a list of the objects present in the scene and their locations. To understanding a scene, plan action on it, and predict what will happen next we must extract the relationships between objects …

Chair: Philippe Aghion Abstract AI techniques were introduced long ago in the field of government and regulation, and are now being deployed at high speed in all branches of law, considerably transforming the tools and logic of administrative and judicial …

Chair: Philippe Aghion Abstract Between structural opposition and reciprocal attraction, AI and culture maintain chaotic links. If (re)conciliation is necessary, the law must encourage the emergence of an ethical and competitive market, respecting the …

Chair: Philippe Aghion Abstract Information technology is in the midst of a revolution, where ubiquitous data collection and machine learning are impacting the human world as never before. The term "intelligence" is used as a North Star for the …

Chair: Xavier Leroy Abstract This lecture offers a reflection on the growing role of machine learning in contemporary music creation, at the intersection of artistic intuition and mathematical formalization. Drawing on my work in computational creativity, …

Chair: Xavier Leroy Abstract In contrast to comparisons between human minds and computing machines, I propose to consider the "artificial intelligence" as a "intellectual technology", which shapes and deforms our minds. If the digital revolution …

Chair: Xavier Leroy Abstract  It is often assumed that as AI makes regular progress in solving more and more problems in various areas, it approaches, asymptotically, the ultimate goal of artificial general intelligence (AGI). If AGI is understood as …

Chairman : Patrick Boucheron Abstract French psychologist Alfred Binet (1857-1911) is famous for having invented the metric intelligence scale, ancestor of the IQ, between 1904 and 1911. This paper will review the prior conceptual transformations that …

Chair : Patrick Boucheron Abstract Over the course of the XIX th century, the concept of intelligence took on an increasingly important role in European anthropological and philosophical thought, establishing itself against competitors such as the mind …

Chair: Patrick Boucheron Abstract This article traces an artificial history of natural intelligence, arguing that, since the emergence of modern thought during the scientific revolution in Europe, the mind and its capacities have been apprehended as …

Chair: Patrick Boucheron Abstract Averroës was cursed in European history for his conception of a human intellect radically separate from bodies, eternal and unique for the entire species. It was seen as the ruin of personal thought, the end of the …

Chair: Stéphane Mallat Abstract The excellence of a surgeon, or more generally of an interventional physician, is not simply a matter of intellectual ability to make the right diagnosis or choose the right therapeutic strategy; it also rests on the …

Chair: Nalini Anantharaman Abstract Artificial intelligence neural networks are trained to estimate answers to questions using statistical computation. The accuracy of these answers, despite the explosion of the set of possibilities, shows that they …

Chair: Stéphane Mallat Abstract AI has already had multiple impacts on mathematics, from working collaboratively with human mathematicians by suggesting conjectures or performing smarter searches, to producing entire proofs unaided. I'll discuss the …
