Dear Colleagues,

[Apologies for cross-posting]

We are excited to invite you to the Theory of Mind for AI (ToM4AI) Workshop at AAAI-26. This workshop brings together researchers from AI, cognitive science, psychology, philosophy, and human-robot interaction to explore how artificial agents can model, infer, and reason about the mental states of others.

Website: https://tom4ai.github.io/AAAI2026/program/

Date and Location: January 26, Singapore EXPO

Who this is for: Researchers and practitioners in AI, machine learning, robotics, cognitive science, philosophy of mind, and related fields.

What you’ll get:

• A cross-disciplinary program of talks, papers, and discussions on ToM in AI.
• Perspectives on definitions, evaluation methods, and applications of ToM across domains.
• Opportunities to influence this research by participating in a hackathon.
• Inspiration for new collaborations and research directions.

If you are interested in how AI systems can understand, predict, or adapt to the beliefs and intentions of others, join us at AAAI-26 and be part of the ToM4AI community.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Nitay, Joe, Stefan, and Reuth
