AIhub monthly digest: August 2023 – ML for biological research, methods in computational creativity, and conferences galore

Welcome to our August 2023 monthly digest, where you can catch up with any AIhub stories you may have missed, peruse the latest news, find out about recent events, and more. This month, we take a whistle-stop tour around some of the big conferences, popping in to IJCAI, AIES and ICML, find out about interdisciplinary methods in computational creativity, and say goodbye to a well-loved podcast. Nadia Ady and Faun Rice are working on a research project exploring where AI researchers find inspiration and ideas about human intelligence, and what approaches they use to translate ideas from the disciplines that study human intelligence (e.g. We spoke to Nadia and Faun about the project, what they've learnt so far, and how they plan to further develop the work. The 32nd International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI 2023) took place in Macao from 19-25 August 2023. The programme included plenary talks, workshops, symposia and tutorials.
