From the site:

> Mind Matters is operated by the non-profit Walter Bradley Center for Natural and Artificial Intelligence at Discovery Institute in Seattle.

> The Center is directed by Dr. Robert J. Marks, a Distinguished Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Baylor University. Dr. Marks hosts the Mind Matters podcast, while the written part of the Mind Matters site is edited by science journalist Denyse O’Leary.

O'Leary has written several apologist books for intelligent design, most notably By Design or by Chance, as well as articles for William Dembski's blog Uncommon Descent. Dembski is a proponent of "intelligent design" who was at one time a part-time post-doctoral researcher for Dr. Robert J. Marks. Dembski also set up the Polanyi Center, an "intelligent design" thinktank.

The Discovery institute pushes pseudoscientific "Intelligent Design" with its "Teach the Controversy" campaign.
