Causal AI: The Melting Pot. Can Physics, Math & Biology Help Us?
What is the relationship between physics and causal models?
What can science of non-human animal behavior teach causal AI researchers?
Bernhard Schölkopf's rich background and experience allow him to combine perspectives from computation, physics, mathematics, biology, theory of evolution, psychology and ethology to build a deep understanding of underlying principles that govern complex systems and intelligent behavior.
His pioneering work in causal machine learning has revolutionized the field, providing new insights that enhance our ability to understand causal relationships and mechanisms in both natural and artificial systems.
In the episode we discuss:

• Does evolution favor causal inference over correlation-based learning?
• Can differential equations help us generalize structural causal models?
• What new book is Bernhard working on?
• Can ethology inspire causal AI researchers?
