Vienna World Logic Day Lecture 2022 with Moshe Y. Vardi

VCLAis raising awareness on the state of the art of the research the areas of logic, philosophy, mathematics, computer science, and artificial intelligence and its complex relationship with the society among the scientific and general public alike.

Vienna Center for Logic and Algorithms at TU Wien

The Vienna Logic Day Lecture is a free online event to celebrate and  enhance the importance of logic in our society.

<h2>From Greek Paradoxes to Political Paradoxes</h2><h3>The ancient Greeks invented logic, as a tool to discover eternal truths. They also invented paradoxes, as a tool to sharpen the mind. In his Vienna World Logic Day Lecture Moshe Vardi not only addresses Greek paradoxes but also talks about the adverse consequences of technology in our modern day society.</h3><h3></h3><p>On<strong> 14 January 2021</strong>, we celebrate <strong>World Logic Day</strong>. In the city of Kurt Gödel, Ludwig Wittgenstein, and the Vienna Circle, mathematical logic and its application to the sciences have a long and rich tradition. This January we celebrate </p><p></p><h1>Vienna World Logic Day Lecture with Moshe Y.
