Silvio Ceccato (1914 - December 2, 1997) was an Italian philosopher and linguist.

Born in Montecchio Maggiore, he studied law and music. In 1949 he founded the international magazine Methodos, which was published until 1964.

In 1956 he designed and built Adamo II, the first Italian prototype of artificial intelligence, which he had intended to reproduce man's mental states. Those same years he lectured on the philosophy of science at Milan University, where he founded the Cybernetics and Linguistic Studies Centre, which he directed until the mid 1960s.

He later retired from the academic world and wrote books about happiness.
