Artificial Intelligence Week at the Silesian University of Technology

On Monday, January 29^th, the Artificial Intelligence Week in the European City of Science Katowice 2024 begins. Many meetings and workshops will be held in the region over the next five days. Scientists from the Silesian University of Technology also invite all interested to events focusing on artificial intelligence.

The fifth week of 50 weeks in the City of Science is Artificial Intelligence Week.

Thanks to algorithms, artificial intelligence can analyse data, recognize patterns, make decisions and even communicate in a way similar to ours. This is a fascinating research field that opens the door to countless possibilities.

Artificial Intelligence Week will be full of events that will allow you to delve deeper into this fascinating field. Thanks to lectures, workshops and discussion panels, you will learn about the latest achievements.

As part of Artificial Intelligence Week, a seminar will be held on Tuesday, January 30 entitled: "Autonomous mobile systems". The thematic session will last from 12.00 to 14.00 in Room 36 in the building of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering of the Silesian University of Technology at 18A, Konarskiego Street in Gliwice. The event will be broadcast online on the Zoom platform https://polsl-pl.zoom.us/s/96299974243 .

The organizer of the seminar is prof. Wojciech Moczulski from the Silesian University of Technology.

The event is addressed to all people interested in autonomous systems.
