What?	We meet online every two-three weeks to discuss a (recent) paper in the philosophy of machine learning, with a focus, but not an exclusive focus, on epistemological themes.
When?	The timeslot for the Summer Semester 2024 is Monday 11.00-12.00. See the below schedule for upcoming and past meetings.
Who?	If you would like to join us, please contact Tom Sterkenburg (tom.sterkenburglmu.de) or Timo Freiesleben (timo.freieslebenweb.de).
