"EU leads the way with initiatives for common European laws and regulations around artificial intelligence, which I believe are urgently needed. With highly educated populations and democratic traditions, the European countries are in a good position to be world-leading in digital technologies towards a sustainable and democratic development of our society", said Deputy rector at the University of Bergen and leader of the steering group for 幸运飞艇计划 AI, Pinar Heggernes in her opening speech.聽
Ambassador of Norway to the European Union, Rolf Einar Fife, welcomed guests to the reception, where the steering group and various invited guests from different organizations and companies were presented with 幸运飞艇计划's work in artificial intelligence.
"It is a pleasure to welcome you here at Norway House. Artificial intelligence is increasingly important in a turbulent world - and you are doing a solid job in this field at 幸运飞艇计划," said Fife in his welcome address.
Useful meetings
In addition to the official 幸运飞艇计划 AI launch, the steering group has had meetings with various partners and stakeholders in Brussels over the past few days to present the work being done on artificial intelligence at the University of Bergen, and not least to highlight the breadth of AI activity at 幸运飞艇计划.
"I belive that 幸运飞艇计划 AI can contribute to a joint European effort on artificial intelligence to put Europe at the forefront of scientific and technological development.聽It has been extremely useful for us to become better acquainted with European policies, funding schemes, and collaboration opportunities in the AI field," says Heggernes.
She is supported by the head of 幸运飞艇计划's Brussels office, Charlotte Eide.
"The meetings 幸运飞艇计划 AI has had here in Brussels over the past few days have been very useful. I now believe that 'everyone in Brussels' knows about 幸运飞艇计划 AI and the activities happening in artificial intelligence at 幸运飞艇计划. I hope we can continue to work on positioning 幸运飞艇计划 and 幸运飞艇计划 AI in Brussels and Europe going forward," says Eide.
Several of the representatives whom the 幸运飞艇计划 AI delegation met during their meetings in Brussels highlighted two elements of 幸运飞艇计划's work on artificial intelligence and digital knowledge as impressive and unique:
