Sorbonne University Abu Dhabi (SUAD) is hosting Artificial Intelligence Week from February 17th to 21st, 2025.
This event, organized by the Sorbonne Centre for Artificial Intelligence (SCAI), will include seminars and conferences focused on a multidisciplinary approach to AI, providing a comprehensive view of its impact and applications.
With some conferences especially designed for experts and others aimed at the wider community, SUAD aims to welcome all AI enthusiasts, world-leading experts, CEOs of companies in the AI industry, students, and curious minds eager to learn about AI. The goal is to bridge disciplines to untangle the hype surrounding AI and deepen participants' knowledge.
Prof. Nathalie Martial-Braz, Chancellor of SUAD, said, "We not only train students to use AI in a wise way but we shape the evolution of AI thanks to multidisciplinary research from understanding AI from a mathematical perspective to questioning the ethics of AI. At SUAD, we have been working on ethical AI since 2019 with a multidisciplinary research methodology, allowing us to create a pathway between all these disciplines and give to the community the access to knowledge".
Prof. Gérard Biau, Director of SCAI in Paris and Abu Dhabi, stated, "Opening a sister centre of SCAI was a natural choice considering the speed of tech developments in the region and especially in the UAE".
In 2019, the Sorbonne Centre for Artificial Intelligence (SCAI) in Paris opened a sister center in Sorbonne Abu Dhabi, home to one of the world’s most advanced data processors. This mirrored model in both Abu Dhabi and Paris highlights the robust scientific collaboration between the two nations and provides exceptional resources for fostering a leading AI ecosystem.
