Some highlights from the AISB Convention this week here at the University of Sussex.
The 2026 convention of the Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of Behaviour (AISB) took place here at Sussex this week with many of the department of Informatics involved. The AISB Convention is a flourishing annual event that thrives from an interdisciplinary audience and facilitates discourse amongst a diverse set of researchers and research cultures.
Keynote speakers:
@profanilseth: Professor of Cognitive and Computational Neuroscience, University of Sussex. Abstract
Philip Ball: Science Writer. Abstract
Topics included:
* AI and Cognitive Sciences in Education (AICSED2026) (https://aicsed.github.io/2026/)
* Hype, Promise, and Speculation: AI Bubbles and the Replication Crisis in Computer Science (https://aisb.org.uk/aisb-2026-symposium-hype-promise-and-speculation/)
* AI, Consciousness and Ethics (https://aice-symposium.github.io/)
* Ethics of Generative-AI Assisted Authoring (https://sussexhumanitieslab.wordpress.com/2026/01/16/aisb-2026-symposium-1-2-july-university-of-sussex/)
* Foundations of computation (https://sites.google.com/view/foundations-of-computation)
* Explainability and Transparency in AI (XTAI-2026) (https://xtai-symposium.github.io/) – XTAI-2026 Programme – XTAI-2026 Pre-Proceedings
* Is consciousness a story we tell ourselves? Internal language and consciousness after chain of thought reasoning (https://astorywetell.github.io/)
* Is there still life in the Turing test? (https://turingtestlives.wordpress.com/)
* Varieties of free will and agency (https://freewillandagency.wordpress.com/)
* Values and Preferences in Reasoning (https://www.vprsymposium.com/)
The Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of Behaviour (AISB) is the largest Artificial Intelligence Society in the United Kingdom and the worlds oldest AI society. Founded in 1964, the society has an international membership drawn from both academia and industry.
Many thanks to everyone who helped to organise, contributed and attended.
