  1. Announcement

    The agenda sets out four research programmes

    The agenda and research pages now organise the lab's work as four programmes on the interpretability of minds, natural and artificial, with the subjects and lenses each draws on.

  2. Design

    A research agenda, four areas and two new designs

    The agenda sets out what the lab aims to build and how it will know whether it worked. Research is now organised in four areas, two new inquiries are designed, and every design states its definitions and the rival explanations it must rule out.

  3. Correction

    One inquiry withdrawn

    The inquiry 'What a decision-maker holds constant' is withdrawn while its design is rewritten.

  4. Announcement

    The lab's site opens

    Eight inquiry designs, three notes and the research pages are published. None of the designs has run.
