BEYOND QUANTITY - Research with Subsymbolic AI

Machine learning accounts, especially artificial neural networks, are now considered the leading approach in artificial intelligence. How does this form of AI challenge research, forms of knowledge, and scientific practice?
In particular, conference attendees are asking how to critically analyze AI beyond its relationship to big data and more generally as a matter of quality rather than quantity.
The conference is part of the Volkswagen Foundation-funded project "How Is Artificial Intelligence Changing Science? Research in the Era of Learning Algorithms".
