Title: Lost In Translation #3 - (Mis)understanding
Date: Friday 9 October 2026
Time: 15:30-17:00
Location: L2.06, LAB42, Science Park 900, Amsterdam [NL]
Communication, human and otherwise, strives to build some shared understanding; nonetheless, misunderstandings are more the norm than the exception. What happens when misunderstandings involve artificial agents? And is understanding even a precondition of communication? In this seminar, we will explore the complex relations between understanding and misunderstanding, drawing on examples spanning humans, computational agents, social robots, and cats alike.
The event is followed by drinks!
