Christoph Benzmüller is a German computer scientist whose research interests include formalisation of rational arguments by using symbolic artificial intelligence.
He then completed his doctorate under Jörg H. Siekmann [de] in 1999 on the subject of Equality and Extensionality in Higher-Order Theorem Proving, supervised by Michael Kohlhase and Frank Pfenning.
[3] Benzmüller conducts research at the intersection of artificial intelligence, philosophy, mathematics and language processing.
He serves on various international committees, advises AI start-ups, is the national contact person for the Confederation of Laboratories for Artificial Intelligence Research in Europe (CLAIRE-AI), member of the Graduate School Berlin Mathematical Research Centre (MATH+) and the Federation of German Scientists.
[5][9] For the formalisation and the proof, Benzmüller gained attention by the national press[10][11][12] and internationally across interdisciplinary researchers.
