DESCRIPTION:'Poetry' as the name of a special human relation to the world -
 - some special kind of knowing\, grasping\, challenging or asking we effec
 t through art -- came into focus in 18th century Europe alongside the firs
 t blushings of a theory of computation and a computational analysis of min
 d. This talk proposes that for all of their outward hostilities\, the Roma
 ntic-and-on idea of poetry and computational approaches to thought\, langu
 age\, and meaning are deeply connected: starting from Kant's doctrine of t
 he productive imagination\, we will develop one historical thread that run
 s to the Romantic poets\, Phenomenology\, and literary theory\, and one hi
 storical thread that runs to information theory\, machine learning\, and t
 he science of neural network models. Comparing the two threads\, I'll argu
 e that poetics and the science of neural network models have genuinely (if
  partially) overlapping subject-matter.  \n\nPeli Grietzer is a researcher
  and writer specializing in ML\, philosophy\, and literary studies. Grietz
 er received his PhD from Harvard Comparative Literature in collaboration w
 ith the HUJI Einstein Institute of Mathematics.
