Abstract

In April this year the programme chairs of EuroGP, the largest conference dedicated to genetic programming, Mauro Castelli and Lukas Sekanina, organised a panel discussion and debate about genetic programming with respect to the undoubted recent successes of other Artificial Intelligence techniques, particularly Deep Learning. The discussion was moderated by Prof. Wolfgang Banzhaf who holds the John R. Koza chair in genetic programming at Michigan State University in the USA. He started by inviting each member of the panel to give their position.
