Öppet seminarium och nätverksforum för AI-forskning inom humanvetenskap vid Stockholms universitet

The event aims to initiate a dialogue within the Human Sciences Area to build a research community interested in AI, given the upcoming Stockholm University’s Joint AI Centrum.

The Human Sciences Area, in collaboration with and on the initiative of the Faculty of Science, is working to create a joint, interdisciplinary AI Center across multiple disciplines and research areas at Stockholm University. The future Stockholm University Joint AI Center aims to strengthen research across faculties and areas at Stockholm University. Our goal is to create a creative, participatory, and sustainable environment that connects researchers, AI experts, domain scientists, educators, and practitioners to foster innovation, knowledge creation, and interdisciplinary expertise, thereby harnessing the potential of AI technologies for the benefit of people and society.

This open seminar and community-building will combine short, inspirational talks with parallel breakout sessions for group discussion on the role of AI in the human science area and its disciplines.

Whether you are actively using AI, just getting started, or simply curious, you are most welcome to register for the event. Refreshments and finger food will be served.
