font-family:Arial'>Bob Wray and I are proposing a 2006 AAAI Spring Symposium entitled:
Cognitive Science principles meet AI-hard problems. The goal of the symposium
is to generate discussion and exchange about the benefits the study of human
intelligence can bring to AI and, as importantly, what AI can contribute to the
study of human intelligence, focusing especially in AI-hard problems.
Additional details on the proposed symposium may be found in the attachment.</span></font></p>

proposed symposium. If this proposal seems like a symposium you might like to
participate in, would you please reply to let us know? A positive reply does
not commit you to participate. Please respond by </span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>noon</span></font><font
