An interdisciplinary symposium in Berlin will examine whether intelligence across radically different biological and artificial systems shares common organisational principles.
The Cross-Kingdom Intelligence Symposium takes place on 22 October 2026 as part of the International Conference on the Simulation of Adaptive Behavior. Speakers include animal collective-behaviour researcher Jens Krause, plant-intelligence researcher Paco Calvo, fungal biologist Vera Meyer and artificial-intelligence researcher Ute Schmid. Roboticist Oliver Brock moderates the event. Presentations and an open discussion will compare sensing, information processing, adaptation and flexible behaviour across organisms and machines.
