We will discuss the challenges and risks of tomorrow: digital sovereignty, the strategic importance of data, the development of AI in contact with society, strong AI, etc.
Frédéric Alexandre
Frédéric Alexandre is research director at Inria, team leader of the MNEMOSYNE project-team and researcher in computational neuroscience and artificial intelligence. The team is shared with the UMR Labri of the CNRS and is based at the Bordeaux Neurocampus.
The goals of the MNEMOSYNE project-team are (1) to model the association of our different forms of memory (e.g., combining know-how and know-what, or learning rules of thumb and concrete cases), (2) to understand how they interact in our main cognitive functions (decision-making, reasoning, imagination), and (3) to study associated pathologies (linked to the basal ganglia, prefrontal cortex, and hippocampus).
