Jean-Gabriel Ganascia is presently Professor of computer science at Paris VI University. He leads in the LIP6 laboratory (Laboratoire d'Informatique de Paris VI) the ACASA team.
Initially focused on Knowledge Acquisition and Machine Learning, the scientific orientations of the ACASA team evolved to Cognitive Modeling and the design of Intelligent Agents. Thus was recently undertaken research on the literary analysis (genetic criticism, stylistic analysis), on modeling social representations (rebuilding of social stereotypes from newspapers), on Scientific Discovery (modeling theories in physical sciences and medicine), on musicology and music (detection of recurrent patterns, simulation of improvisations), on didactic, on multi-media, on intelligent TV and on the improvement of electronic reading facilities.
In a word, our scientific aim is to show that Artificial Intelligence is not only part of the sciences of nature that investigates the natural phenomenon; it is also a science of culture, which influences the production of knowledge today.
Jean-Gabriel Ganascia published more than 300 papers in conferences proceedings, journals and books. In addition he has published many books and papers about philosophical issues and social consequences of the development information technologies (e.g. "L’âme machine" ed. du Seuil, "2001, l’Odyssée de l’esprit" ed. Flammarion, "Gédéon" and "Les Sciences cognitives" ed. Le Pommier, "Idées reçues sur l’intelligence artificielle" ed. du Cavalier Bleu, etc.).
For a few years now, he worked on ethics and political philosophy of the information society. His last book "Voir et pouvoir: qui nous surveille?" is issued from this work. It explores the ethical and political structure of our contemporaneous society. It relies on the notion of Catopticon, which extends the Bentham's Panopticon to a generalized "sousveillance" where everybody can watch everybody.
