In medicine, artificial intelligence is an important aid. Amongst
other things, it helps to identify tumours. AI quickly and
reliably translates from foreign languages, but not from all of
them. On the internet, algorithms determine our image of reality.
Is that what we want?

In the first episode of the podcast “AI and Us”, AI experts
Milica Gašić, Tobias Matzner, Daniel Rückert and Aimée van
Wynsberghe give us an overview of the opportunities but also the
risks inherent in artificial intelligence.

The Alexander von Humboldt Foundation

Every year, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation enables more
than 2,000 researchers from all over the world to spend time
conducting research in Germany. The Foundation maintains a
network of well over 30,000 Humboldtians from all disciplines in
more than 140 countries worldwide – including 57 Nobel Laureates.

As part of the German government’s Artificial Intelligence
Strategy, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation can appoint a
total of 30 Alexander von Humboldt Professors for Artificial
Intelligence in the years up to 2024. These chairs are
contributing to work being done to comprehensively investigate
the opportunities AI offers for our future and to make use of
them. They will also help strengthen Germany’s standing as an
internationally attractive and influential location in this
important field.
