SUMMARY:Insights into the wondrous world of AI & start-ups
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to hessian.AI\, the Hessian Center for Artificial Intelligence!\nWe are a research and innovation center with over 80 professors conducting research on a wide range of topics related to artificial intelligence. But research should not remain in an ivory tower. We bring AI into application and society and accompany ideas from the initial vision to founding and market readiness. \nAt this year’s Girls’ Day\, we will be focusing on the following topics: \n\nExciting insights into the world of AI\nCreative idea development\nHow an idea becomes a start-up\nInspiration and courage for new ideas\n\nTogether with KI macht Schule\, we will discover why AI is such an exciting field of science and technology. You will learn what AI actually is\, how an AI system works\, and how it can be classified technically and socially. \nThen you will get active yourself: you will develop your own ideas for AI solutions and present them. You will also meet a female founder from the field of “AI & education” who will tell you how she implemented her idea and turned it into a successful start-up. Of course\, you can also ask any questions you may have. \n  \nWe look forward to seeing you! \n  \nThis offer is barrier-free.\nIf you need assistance\, please contact us in advance. If you have any further questions\, please call us or send us an email. We can then plan your visit together. \n  \nImportant note regarding registration\nYou must be at least 13 years old to participate in this offer. \n  \nRegistration\nYou can register for this offer online – please use the “Sign Up”-Button. \nPlease note: You will receive a final confirmation for your participation. There is no participation without signing up in advance.
