This is a closed-attendance event. Please do not share this registration link outside official invitation.A two day workshop on AI, the Brain and Society at the Paris Institute of Advanced Studies (Quai d’Anjou, Ile St Louis) on April 19 and 20 will bring together scientists, engineers, philosophers and ethicists to discuss how brain science is impacting the development of AI, what AI has to tell us about the brain, and how AI advances will influence society, our interactions with one another and with our devices. The workshop will include around 70 people, including researchers, technologists and students from the Paris area as well as international invited speakers. The meeting will focus primarily on open discussion in panels. We hope that the meeting will result in a novel Perspectives style piece that we can work on collectively.Current speakers include:<ul><li>Yoshua Bengio, MILA, Montreal.
