The study of beliefs and believing finds increasing attention from several disciplinary areas. In the last few years an international and interdisciplinary research-network was developing new insights into the fascinating mental activity while someone is believing. Research like this one has implications for theology, called to requalify its traditional views on faith; for philosophy, raising epistemological issues; for cognitive and neuro-sciences, aimed at better understanding such mental feature; and social sciences, intrigued about how beliefs nourish and sustain social systems. Even artificial intelligence research appears to be interested in such processes. The present panel aims at analysing current trends and advancement in the study of beliefs and believing and to foster a greater interdisciplinary dialogue around such topics.Chair: Lluis Oviedo (Pontificia Università Antonianum) Speakers:Lluis Oviedo (Pontificia Università Antonianum), Can we predict the cultural evolution of beliefs?Andrea Vestrucci (Otto-Friedrich-Universität Bamberg), Belief Revision Models in Philosophy and Computer ScienceSara Lumbreras (Universidad Pontificia Comillas), Human vs. machine beliefs: a perspective from the Call of Rome for Ethics in AIHans-Ferdinand Angel (Universität Graz), The evolution of the capacity of believing – A precondition for religious beliefs
