SCIENTIFIC EXCELLENCY IN THE FIELD OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Research in artificial intelligence (AI) has been growing in Slovenia for more than 30 years. In recent years, Slovenia has also strengthened its research departments and laboratories, which have enabled Slovenia to be recognised as one of the most successful and innovative countries in the field of AI worldwide. This recognition of quality and excellence in the field of artificial intelligence was also recognised by the international organisation UNESCO, which established the first International Research Centre on Artificial Intelligence (IRCAI) in Ljubljana.
Numerous research activities are carried out at universities, the Jožef Stefan Institute and many other institutions, which are successfully translating research achievements into practice, both in the economic and social spheres.
The event is primarily aimed at showcasing innovative and technologically advanced scientific developments in the field of AI. The panel will focus on the challenges and opportunities for further stimulus in the research field in the coming years, in particular to advance scientific excellence.
Do not miss this unique opportunity to learn about best practices and solutions in the field of AI in Slovenia.
