How are different countries integrating AI into education and what can we learn from each other’s experiences? In this international panel, we bring together a wide range of European perspectives to look into at European innovation with and around generative AI and how different educational futures are envisioned. We will dive into the challenges faced, lessons learned and explore what role European collaboration can play.
With Artificial Intelligence (AI) being at the core of discussions in higher education, numerous institutions face the question of how to provide access to AI models for their staff and students, integrate them into their core processes and building towards a new future of education. We will explore how different organizations facilitate the change and learn from examples and challenges faced across different nations. We explore similarities and differences and the of collaboration across Europe.
