The KIT Graduate School Computational and Data Science (KCDS) at KIT Center MathSEE is delighted to kick off the new year with an exciting KCDS Talk in January.

The topic for January is "Safe AI: Research Frontiers in Academia" As AI continues to play a growing role in critical sectors such as healthcare, autonomous systems, and intelligent production, ensuring safety and reliability in AI systems has become a major focus for researchers.

We are pleased to host a panel of distinguished academic experts who are leading research in safe AI:

• Dr. Ramy Zeineldin (FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg - Department of Artificial Intelligence in Biomedical Engineering)
• Dr. Ö. Sahin Tas (FZI - Intelligent Systems & Production Engineering)
• Prof. André Platzer (KIT KASTEL - Logic of Autonomous Dynamical Systems)

This talk will dive into the research frontiers in AI safety, exploring how academia is advancing methods to ensure that AI technologies are robust, secure, and trustworthy. From biomedical applications to autonomous systems, these experts will share insights from their latest research and discuss the challenges and opportunities in making AI safer.

Following the talk, there will be a discussion with the speakers, offering attendees the opportunity to ask questions and engage in conversation about the topic. The session will be hosted by Lukas Frank.

Snacks and Drinks & Networking Opportunity: After the event, there will be food provided, offering an excellent opportunity to network with the speakers and other attendees. Make the most of this chance to connect and discuss ideas with fellow researchers and professionals.

Whether you’re a student, researcher, or professional working with AI or simply interested in the future of safe AI, this event promises to be both informative and engaging.

Join us in person or via Zoom – the event is free and open to all without prior registration.
