What?	We meet 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 Winter Semester 2023/24 is Friday 16.00-17.00. 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.freieslebencampus.lmu.de).
