Mario Günther
Alumni, now at LMU Munich
Dr. Mario Günther was a Research Fellow with the HMI project, based in the School of Philosophy at the ANU. Recently, he has developed a new theory of learning uncertain conditional information and proposed a novel account of actual causation. His work has been published in top journals in logic and philosophy of science, as well as leading general philosophy journals. He was awarded a doctoral fellowship by the Graduate School of Systemic Neurosciences and is an external member of the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy. More recently, Mario has become interested in the question whether, and if so, how algorithms should be deployed in legal contexts.
"The HMI project gives a great opportunity to work out, in a team of internationally leading experts, how machines can and should reason. I find the prospect of machines that reason like us particularly exciting.“
