AI@UniBE - Research in Dialogue
The 2024 KILOF Event at UniBE provided opportunities to get inspired and to shape the dialogue on responsible AI.
On the 23rd February 2024, the second KILOF-event 'AI@UniBE – Research in Dialogue' took place at the University of Bern. We explored the current and future potentials of AI in research. We explored the use of AI in ongoing research projects, engaged in discussions on responsible AI use, and connected with experts in the field. There was the opportunity to explore innovative AI implementation and share our thoughts with an interdisciplinary research community.
KILOF 2025 will take place on the 7th March 2025. Keep an eye on the KILOF current events page for more details.
