Artificiële intelligentie moet ons leven verrijken, maar er niet mee aan de haal gaan. Het moet zich houden aan door mensen gehanteerde logica en principes voor rationaliteit, moraliteit en consistentie. Kortom, wij willen machinaal handelen kunnen begrijpen en sturen. Mens en machine moeten elkaar in voldoende mate verstaan om op de gewenste manier met elkaar om te gaan.

Vier sprekers (Catholijn Jonker, Jan Broersen, Rineke Verbrugge en Bart Jacobs) leggen uit welke rol logica, in combinatie met probabilistisch denken, speelt in het onderzoek naar de vervulling van deze wensen.
